Summary
A Note for Parents and Teachers:
For years, readers have joined Laura and her family as they traveled across the frontier in search of a home. While the Little House books give readers a window into life at that time, they also include negative representations of and derogatory remarks about Native Americans. Reading this series creates a unique opportunity to discuss many elements of 19th-century America, including the roles that prejudice and racism have played in history.

About this Series
Weaving together fact and fiction, this beloved and award-winning series chronicles a young girl's experiences on the American frontier. Laura Ingalls Wilder was the second of four daughters born to a family of western settlers. This engaging, well-told, and occasionally heartbreaking series charts her family's incredible challenges in late 19th-century America, setting up homes in four states across a 15-year time span. These books include moments of devastating loss and tremendous triumph, and offer a meticulous depiction of frontier life to young readers.Also Read . . .
