Synopsis
A history of the author Laura Ingalls Wilder's own family, as well as a very thorough overview of pioneer life in America, LITTLE HOUSE IN THE BIG WOODS is the first book in the beloved nine-book Little House series. Set in the woods of Wisconsin during the 1870s, this book follows one year in the life of the Ingalls family--Pa, Ma, Mary, Laura, and baby Carrie. Although LITTLE HOUSE IN THE BIG WOODS is primarily a testament to the author's family, the book also provides detailed information about the struggles and constant hard work of pioneer life. For example, readers will learn how Ma, with the help of Mary and Laura, cured the meat of the animals that Pa hunted, killed, butchered, and skinned so that the family would have food to eat during the long, cold Wisconsin winter. A celebration of family love and the American pioneer spirit, the Little House books are extremely popular, and even today readers can visit the homes once occupied by the Ingalls family--almost all of which have been preserved as historical landmarks. Illustrated with B&W pencil drawings.
