The ratings for the Louisa May Alcott books I have read have gone, in order of when I read them: 5, 4, 4, 3, and 2.
This does not give me much hope for the next book.

I had no idea what to expect from this book. It was a delight! I thought it would be more of a girls book but it wasn’t, it was ALSO a boy book. Just a good book about the adventures of two boys and two girls. I’m sorry this book is not more popular.

Sweet, but not compelling. Read it to Lillian at bedtimes

3.5 stars. While not my favorite story by Louisa May Alcott, I did enjoy it. Bab and Betty are so cute! And I liked Ben right from the start. While not a very exciting story, it was well told and fun to read. It also held the same delightful "flavor" as all of Alcott's works. I loved the ending.

Charming little book full of simple pleasures and interesting writing. Good for all ages.
