I think this is one of those books you’ll either love or hate. I really enjoyed it for what it was. It’s a series of episodic short stories with some slight overarching narrative direction. It’s cute and lighthearted, but don’t expect something as deep as Little Women. The main connective tissue is the educational theory that seems to underpin the whole book.
