Publisher's Note
When Laura Ingalls Wilder was in her sixties, she started writing stories about her childhood as a pioneer -- traveling in a covered wagon with her family all over the Midwest. These stories became the classic series of "Little House" books, read and adored by children around the world. In this inspiring biography. Ginger Wadsworth (author of John Muir: Wilderness Protector C. 1992 and Rachel Carson: Voice for the Earth C. 1992) tells Laura Ingalls Wilder's story. She also describes how Laura's daughter Rose, who was a famous writer in her own right, helped her mother prepare her stories for publication.

Industry Reviews
"It is fascinating to read about the real events and experiences that shaped her (Ingalls Wilder's] life....this solid biography will satisfy fans clamoring for something to supplement Wilder's own work."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Susan Faust (03/30/1997)

"Especially fun for the reader are the photographs, which turn Laura into a flesh-and-blood person eery bit as much as her stories do."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Pat Mathews (09/19/1997)
