Summary Annotation From the author of Little Women: An American classic of young best friends in a rustic New England town.In post-Civil War New England, thirteen-year-old Jack Minot and Janey Pecq are inseparable best friends who live next door to each other in the town of Harmony Village. The pair does everything together--so much so that Janey is nicknamed "Jill" to fit the old children's rhyme. One winter day, the friends share a sled down a treacherous hill and both end up injured and bedridden.Unable to go out and have fun, Jack, Jill, and their circle of friends begin to learn about more than the fun and games of their youth and discover what it means to grow up--exploring their town, their hearts, and the big, wide world beyond for the first time.This charming, wistful coming-of-age tale, written twelve years after Louisa May Alcott's classic Little Women, examines the strange, tempestuous changes of adolescence with homespun heart and worldly wisdom.
