Books with title The Little House Books

The "Little House" books tell the story of Laura Ingalls Wilder, who with her family, was one of the early pioneers of the American West. Born in 1967 in a little log cabin on the edge of the Big Woods in Wisconsin, Laura traveled with her family by covered wagon through Kansas, Minnesota, and finally thr Dakota Territory, where she met and married Almanzo Wilder. There was deprivation and hard work. Crops were ruined by storms and grasshopper plagues. But there were also happy times of love and laughter, sleigh rides, holiday celebrations, and socials. These nine books, beloved by children for generations, cature the very best of the American pioneer spirit.
