By Laura Ingalls Wilder
Level 5
Review:

Little House in the Big Woods is the first book in Laura Ingalls Wilder’s beloved Little House series, based on her life growing up on the American frontier. These warm family stories give insight into a more simple time in history. Most girls who start this series will be hooked.

Books in this series we recommend: By the Shores of Silver Lake, Farmer Boy, Little House in the Big Woods, Little House on the Prairie, Little Town on the Prairie, On the Banks of Plum Creek, The First Four Years, The Long Winter, These Happy Golden Years

Books in this series that did not make the book list: None

Note: there is some racist conversation in some of the books that was, sadly, typical of the time period.
