Unabridged CD.

"Meet Laura Ingalls, the girl who would grow up to write the Little House books. The Long Winter is over. With Spring come socials, parties, and 'Literaries.' There is also work to be done. Laura spends many hours each day sewing shirts to help send Mary to college for the blind. But in the evenings, Laura makes time for a new caller, Almanzo Wilder."
Little Town on the Prairie is the seventh book in the Laura Years Series.
"Laura Ingalls Wilder was born in the Wisconsin woods in 1867. She wrote the Little House books based on her own experiences growing up on the Western frontier. Just like the characters in her stories, Laura and her family trraveled by covered wagon across the Midwest as they moved from place to place. She and her husband, Almanzo, finally settled down in Mansfield, Missouri, where she lived until she was ninety years old." |
