little house on the prairie hardback book set

Tonight I raise my glass to this history (despite the foreshadowing that Laura and her daughter become libertarians late in life).Įdited to change republicans to libertarians. If she hadn’t done that, we might not have these amazing historical fiction books that basically raised me. It’s also incredible that once Laura’s mother Caroline died, Laura wrote to her aunt begging for pages of memories of times gone by. I was really into the swarms of locusts that mysteriously went extinct the same year that Laura’s father, Charles Ingalls died, after causing him years of crop failure and contributing to the families’ abject poverty. Some of the history is too dense and I skimmed some, but it was such a pivotal time in American history that it truly is mostly fascinating. I go to these first so that I dont have to cut one or two little squares out of my larger. It’s kind of heartbreaking to learn the true story, but I don’t think it will diminish my love for those books. Ever since Lori Holts new book, Quilters Cottage, came out.
