by Laura Ingalls Wilder, Garth Williams
This book series is a classic piece of children's literature, in my opinion. These books are full of morals, character education, imagination in its purest form, and coming of age stories. These books teach children about life as it was during a simpler time, but are also highly relatable, especiall...
These were my absolute favorite stories as a child. 5 stars!
Such an amazing series for young girls. Teaches moral and family values. Highly recommend to all children.
Received this as a Valentine's Day gift from my husband. I love the set and am thoroughly enjoying rereading the entire series.

How can I review a book that charmed me before I could read? Of course these are favorites. They were the first "chapter books" I ever read on my own, but I heard them read to me from the cradle by my mom, who loves them too.
My teacher gave these to me in first grade. She was impressed that I had taught myself how to read and I was such a well spoken child at an early age. What went wrong with me?Well these books are an all time classic. I remember staying up all night reading the stories with the blanket over my head a...
