About the Author
Laura Ingalls Wilder was born in 1867 in the log cabin described in Little House in the Big Woods. As her classic Little House books tell us, she and her family traveled by covered wagon across the Midwest. She and her husband, Almanzo Wilder, made their own covered-wagon trip with their daughter, Rose, to Mansfield, Missouri. There Laura wrote her story in the Little House books, and lived until she was ninety years old. For millions of readers, however, she lives forever as the little pioneer girl in the beloved Little House books.

Customer Reviews

A Trip Down Memory Lane
I am the mother of a two year old daughter and was delighted to find the magic of the Laura Ingalls Wilder books captured in a format that is perfect for small children. As a child, I became fascinated with the adventures of Laura, Mary and their baby sister Carrie. Prairie Day is a synopsis of the Little House on the Prairie book. With vivid drawings that have been inspired by the artwork on the original covers by Garth Williams, Renee Graef manages to convey the story in pictures that have captured the imagination of my daughter. I look forward to sharing with her the original books in the future, but meanwhile we will continue to enjoy the series of books that Prairie Day is a part of.

Little House Picture Books
The Little House picture books are a perfect way to introduce young children to the world of Laura Ingalls Wilder, and to American History. The illustrations are true to the originals, yet they enhance them beautifully. I plan to buy all of them.

A Classic for Young Children
Prairie Day, an adaptation from the Little House on the Prarie classic series, will delight children and peak their interest in Pioneering life. The illustrations capture the attention and imagination of young children, whetting their appetite for more.

This adaptation shows kids that riding accross the prairie in a covered wagon is not all "fun and games." What do pioneering families do when the ride gets a bit "boring?" Take a break, of course! Kids will enjoy learning what kinds of foods pioneering families ate, how they cooked and what they did without hotels while travelling accross America.
