- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was so amazing! I was so happy when I heard that there was another book in the series, and I loved that all the characters in little men are there; but older! I wish there was more books about them, but I’m also glad it ended there and yes, it was a great book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The final story in the March family series.
Just as heartwarming and well-written as all the others. Full of morals and values not commonly taught today.
Excellent oration; pleasant and easy listening.
Highly recommend for school-aged children of all ages.
