    Little House (9-Book Boxed Set)

    Fantastic family reading!

    I read all the Little House books out loud each night to my 8 year old daughter and my husband. We all love them! My daughter loves Laura and her family and my husband and I are continually astounded at how self-reliant Pa and Ma are. I never thought my husband would enjoy these books, but it really has turned into a family event each night.

    Little House on the Prairie (Little House Series: Classic Stories #2)

    Country Girls and Wolves

    In 2010 we live in a world that revolves around technology. Children know all about the electronic devices available from tv, cell phones, to games. Yet, many have no clue that electronic games once did not exist and life was wonderful. Laura Ingalls Wilder captures the simple pleasures of life and all that nature offered to children in her book, By the Shores of Silver Lake. There was no danger running across a frozen lake, but when you come across a wolves' den, your chances of getting away rely on quick instinct. I totally recommend this book.

    Little House series

    ALL of Laura Ingalls Wilder's stories are excellent, I would highly recommend to anyone!! And the color versions of the book are better quality books as far as the paper, doesn't tear as easily...And the color really enhances the stories for children.

    ok book

    this was a pretty good book. my favorite part was when Laura and her family went on their very first train ride. I thought it was very sad how Laura's dog-Jack died.

    a reviewer

    In the Shores of Silver Lake Laura sees a lot of railroad men. She learns how the men level the land so railroad tracks can be laid down. In the middle of this book people come and settle the land. Since people had no homes built yet they stayed in Laura's house and then moved on to going further west or settling around that area. I reccomend this book to people who want to learn about the wild west.
