Louisa May Alcott 
Eight Cousins 
Or, The Aunt Hill

The story tells how Rose, who has been recently orphaned and must now reside with her maiden great aunts, one of the most winning heroines in juvenile fiction, and her seven boy cousins, get into scrapes, mischief and all kinds of fun. Like many of Alcott’s books for young people, this story sometimes takes a high moral tone, too.
