Malen′ki choloviky (anhl.)

Little Men novel, like most of the works by the American writer Louisa May Alcott (1832–1888), is somewhat autobiographical. In the private school for boys, which was opened by the spouses Jo and Fritz Bhaer, rather free rules of behavior prevail. But its pupils—different in character and outlook on life, and before they know it—become real men.
