What follows is the tale of their recuperation and also a weaving in of the other characters, such as Jack&#8217;s brother Frank, Jill&#8217;s friends Molly and Merry, etc; and chronicles the mistakes they make and the lessons they learn as a result, among other topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>     It&#8217;s similar to Little Women, though still not quite on the same level. But, if you want something to read while sitting on a hillside and looking down into a little valley and forest beyond (which I may or may not have done) it&#8217;s a great choice. Just a cozy little story perfect for the coming cooler weather.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/simplyemilyrose.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/4AD03CBA-C354-4D24-801F-B8A693A86F24-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simplyemilyrose.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/4AD03CBA-C354-4D24-801F-B8A693A86F24-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/simplyemilyrose.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/4AD03CBA-C354-4D24-801F-B8A693A86F24-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/simplyemilyrose.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/4AD03CBA-C354-4D24-801F-B8A693A86F24.jpeg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to find Jack and Jill:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>     I&#8217;ll leave a link to the novel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Jack-Jill-150th-Anniversary-Illustrated\/dp\/1950435814\/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2YY3C0XYHVRQF&amp;keywords=jack+and+Jill+Louisa+may+alcott&amp;qid=1662561620&amp;sprefix=jack+and+jill+louisa+may+alcott%2Caps%2C119&amp;sr=8-1\">here<\/a>.
