Thanks to old Mr. Laurence's legacy, ten years after its founding, Plumfield grew into a college. Old students have matured into young men and charming and aspiring young ladies who are making their own way in the world. But a young person has as many problems as a child, and it turns out that they are still Jo's "sons"...

Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was born in Pennsylvania. By the time she and her three sisters had grown out of childhood, their impractical father had bankrupted a school based on revolutionary idealistic educational principles (modeled after the Plumfield School), a farm, and a utopian vegetarian community. So Louisa had to come up with something to contribute to the family income. For a few years, he delivered horror stories and melodramatic novels to magazines. She then thought that she and her three sisters would be perfect models for a more serious novel. This is how Kissassonyok was born, which soon became a classic. Thanks to its lifelike characters and situations, readers eagerly awaited the sequels, and this series of family novels is still able to move the reader many years after the author's death.
