Little House books

One of the first few books that enthralled me as a child were those of Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books. These books tell the story of Laura and her family as they move across America to find a place to live in the early 1800s. Reading these books will give readers an idea of how difficult it was for the American pioneers to live when America was still a land of vast wilderness. The descriptions of how Laura's father would go hunting for their food and how he would gather logs from the forest to build their homes are just too amazing. Until now, I still couldn't forget how Laura's father was able to build their log homes without using any nails.

Two weeks ago, my sister went to Gaisano and by sheer luck found a pre-owned copy of the Laura's Little House on the Prairie. She went back last week and found a copy of These Happy Golden Years and By the Shores of Silver Lake. My happiness just overflowed when my sister came home with these books. They are truly beautiful. They also remind me of the many happy hours I'd spent at our town's library. As of writing, we now have three books from Laura's nine book series. I can't wait for the time when we'll be able to find all the remaining books from Laura's series.
