- Nous devons faire de notre mieux, Laura, et ne pas rechigner. Ce qui doit être fait est mieux fait de bon cœur.- Charles, dit Maman, réjouissons-nous d'être en bonne santé, en sécurité, bien au chaud et avec assez de nourriture pour tout l'hiver et ne pensons pas à ce que nous n'avons pas.
Just awesome. Sigourney and I are having such fun reading this series together. There's even more danger for Laura and her family in Minnesota. Blizzards, floods, grasshopper infestations, Nellie Oleson -- life was precarious for the Ingalls on Plum Creek.Speaking of the scenes with grasshoppers, t...
It's easy to get so stuck on the subject matter of the stories Wilder tells that we fail to notice her brilliant, deceptively quiet writing.

It was fun to read this again for the first time since I visited Plum Creek and waded in the water out front of the homesite last summer. I enjoyed this chapter of the Ingalls' life more than the previous one, but I'm finding Pa to be a real annoyance. I know he was a loving father, but I don't thin...
Second Grade, my friend and I sat by the brick wall and read every little house on the prairie book together during every recess. We just found each other again via Facebook. She remembers those times.
