Little House in the Big Woods |
Little House on the Prairie is the third children's book written by Laura Ingalls Wilder in the Little House book series. It was published in 1935, and illustrated by Helen Sewell, and in later editions by Garth Williams.
It is perhaps, the best known book in the series; and in addition, it is one of the best-selling children's books of all time, and the best-selling in the Little House series.[1][2]
Plot[]
Pa Ingalls decides to sell the little log house, and the family sets out for Indian country! They travel from Wisconsin to Kansas, and there, finally, Pa builds their little house on the prairie. Sometimes farm life is difficult, even dangerous, but Laura and her family are kept busy and happy with the promise of their new life on the prairie.
