Laura Ingalls and her family are heading to Kansas! Leaving behind their home in the Big Woods of Wisconsin, they travel by covered wagon until they find the perfect spot to build a little house on the prairie. Laura and her sister Mary love exploring the rolling hills around their new home, but the family must soon get to work, farming and hunting and gathering food for themselves and for their livestock. Just when the Ingalls family starts to settle into their new home, they find themselves caught in the middle of a conflict. Will they have to move again?
We made and ate the bean porridge talked about in this book and many of the Little House books. It is, I have to say, very delicious and filing! So far all the meals we have eaten have been good and filing. We will definitely be eating this again.
We mistakingly read this book out of order! WHOOPS! Nonetheless we will get back on track. How detailed and what a ton of history we are learning about these times and the people who lived them. Fascinating.
On to more reading!!
Peace.
