Set ten years after Little Men, the Plumfield boys - including rebellious Dan, adventurous Emil and creative Nat - are now grown up, and carving out their places in the world. As they deal with the challenges of growing up, finding careers and falling in love, their mother and guardian Jo remains at the heart of the family, steady in her love for her 'boys' as she steers them through young adulthood and the life lessons that accompany it. When one of the boys confesses to committing a shocking act, it tests the strength of Jo's love to its very limits. Jo's Boys is the third and final book in the 'Little Women' trilogy, and a charming and bittersweet conclusion to the story of a family first introduced to us in Little Women.
