The Littles

What a cute little story about family and triumphing over obstacles with a positive attitude (except for Uncle Pete). I was prereading it for my children and am satisfied that it is a great read for any classroom or family. Nothing inappropriate or distasteful found. I have read several children’s chapter books today in order to compile a quality selection for my family and this one was one of the most charming. I am definitely seeing a difference, with a negative trend, between today’s novels character and the literature written between 1950-2000ish. It’s not just content, but a type of magical essence that seems to be lacking in many of the more modern novels. Even when I’m entertained, it’s not the same type of allure to the voice of the story.

I bought this book for students that struggle with reading. I love that it is a chapter book that largely phonetic so the students can be successful reading it over the summer independently. I bought it for a finishing 3rd grader reading 6 months behind grade level.

This is one of my favorite books of all time. In my classroom every year, I read this book to my students and they are always captivated. The Littles are a strong unit who will do anything to protect their home and each other.

This was a fun, imaginative, and engaging book. Perfect early chapter book for my 4 and 6 year old!

great level M book for kids

Cute book!

Grandson (age 9) chose this book and enjoyed reading the story.

My son loves this series. He was very hard to get engaged in reading and only liked the gross boys' series books. I introduced him to this and boxcar children and other books from my childhood and he has been an excited reader. (He is 9, reads on level but I would say these are pretty easy reading for him)

So much adventure! I'll be passing on these books to my grandchildren!

Fast delivery, a great children’s book

My 5 yr old daughter seemed to like the story and actually asked me to order the next book however I found the book too American and had to substitute several words and phrases as I was reading in order for her to understand. The story was just okay.

My 6 year old daughter really enjoyed this book. We are looking forward to getting more Littles books to read.
