My Review of Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder
I have got to say, this was quite a book.
Growing up, my mom was obsessed with Little House on the Prairie. She faithfully watched that show almost every day, and during the summers we had off together, I'd watch it too. It was one of my favorite memories with her.
A long time ago, they were having a meet and greet in Nebraska with some of the cast members, so naturally my mom wanted to go. She took me with and we made an adventure out of it. We met quite a few of the cast members from the show, and we even got their signatures! It was the greatest day of my young life.
Back then, Mom bought me a book from the bookstore at the spot we were at, which just happened to be this exact one, and I had the cast members that were there sign the book. That made this read even more special.
I've been meaning to read this for years, but I just finally got around to it. Since my mother has now passed away, this read had so much more sentimental value than ever before.
The book is set back in the old days, when settlers roamed the Earth and lived off the land. It was a much simpler time, way before cell phones and technology made it into the world. It documents Laura and her family's adventures in their daily lives. It brings up real life issues, like prairie fires and malaria, that were very common back then. It also talks about how the family did things. I thought it was so cool that Pa built their house from scratch, and even put in the glass windows himself! That is something I have always wanted to do is build my own house from the ground up. I got so wrapped up in the story that I felt like I was right there with the Ingalls family!
It's so interesting to me to read a real account from someone who lived back during those days. I love reading about life in the old days so much. I've always wanted that lifestyle for myself. I've always dreamed of living out in the country and having so much beauty to take in all around me; to get to live on a farm and live off the land in peace. Of course, I am glad things are not as intense as they seemed to be back in Laura's time.
This is one of my most favorite reads of all time. It was such a heartwarming and thrilling read. I highly recommend it to everyone. Definitely worth the read!
