Product Description
“Clear the lulla!” was the all-purpose weep on a bright December afternoon, when all the boys and girls of Harmony Village were out enjoying the first excellent snow of the season. Up and down three long coasts they went as quick as legs and sleds could carry them. One smooth path led into the meadow, and here the small folk congregated; one swept across the pond, where skaters were darting about like water-bugs; and the third, from the very top of the steep hill, finished abruptly at a rail fence on the high bank above the road. There was a group of lads and lasses sitting or leaning on this fence to rest after an exciting race, and, as they reposed, they amused themselves with criticising their mates, still absorbed in this most delightful of out-door sports.

‘Jack and Jill’ is as far from the entertaining March family tree as L.M.Alcott could possibly get. The tale of the two friends never rises above the mediocre.The characters are so roughly sketched in that they certainly do not live in the book though the reader may be able to find similar characters in Alcott’s additional works. Excise high on my list only for the excellent, ancient fashioned values it tries to prompt but would probably be rejected by todays readers as being too preachy, a fault that does not plague Alcott’s better efforts. On the whole a must only if you are a staunch fan.

I have read many books by Louisa May Alcott, but this was certainly not my favorite. It was a small too childish, and was dull in some parts. It’s not like I don’t delight in persons type of books, I really like reading. Some parts of the book were really excellent. I especially liked the parts about Jill’s friends Merry and Molly. It’s a excellent book with a excellent moral, but not for persons who delight in exciting books.

I’ve long been a fan of the lesser Louisa May Alcott books and now my daughter has learned them too. I was pleased to find Jack and Jill available in this handy paperback by an on-demand publisher. My seventh-grade daughter pounced on the book first, in fantastic excitement. It was a bit deflating that there was no book-point take in art or back take in material–it is a standard, rather hideous take in and the back text advertises the publisher itself. But I guess there’s no arguing with that part. Far worse, my daughter establish a minefield of typos in the first few pages, which proved very distracting. Then she establish that about 1 1/2 pages from 3-4 were repeated verbatim on pages 5-6. She showed me both problems and she was absolutely right: the printing process had gone completely haywire. There was no reason to expect these issues were confined to the first few pages, and we had lost faith in the whole edition. Regretfully, we have sent the book back.

This has a sticky, preachy quality about it -too sweet. but although the beginning bears a resemblance to the rhyme, the tale is for young adults and adults. No where as excellent as Small Women
