COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Forever Beloved submitted by Sara W on June 21, 2011, 9:30am I'm always fascinated to see how quickly and capably Pa creates shelter and conveniences for his family. And who doesn't love Mr. Edwards?

:-) submitted by marisal on June 26, 2011, 1:53pm This book is a great book and I'd recomend it to everyone!

Great! submitted by Margaretta on July 27, 2011, 1:06pm I really like this series!

Amazing!! submitted by gxl on July 15, 2012, 4:00pm Loved this series!!!

Classic submitted by seadocks on August 7, 2012, 8:01pm My daughter loves it when I read from this series of books. I love it too. She always asks me all sorts of questions about how people lived back then and how long ago it was, and if I was alive back then. These books are great for sharing information with your kids about the history of the westward movement and early pioneer life. I know with my family it leads to further research into fire building, wood furniture construction, basket weaving, cooking, animal raising, and of course farming and gardening. I also think its a great way to talk to your kids about values and the importance of family. Please read this with your kids, it is totally worth it.

Very Good Book submitted by zoe.dvh on July 1, 2014, 10:19am A great book! One of my personal favorites! It inspires you to do what they did back then.

Good submitted by lgpat on August 29, 2015, 12:13am Enjoyed this series as a child

A classic every child should read submitted by motherof3 on July 25, 2018, 11:36am A wonderful book that every American child should read. Just took my family to Sauder Village and a couple of the pioneer houses were so much like the house in the book.

Pioneer children’s book submitted by elepling on August 6, 2018, 2:30pm Interesting to read about life in the pioneer days

One of my favorite childhood stories submitted by crp on August 9, 2019, 8:18am I loved this book as a little kid, and can’t wait to share with my daughter when she’s a few years older. It has a good easy-to-understand way of storytelling, with some new words that your kid can look up in the dictionary and learn, but not too many that they can’t read without too many interruptions. This would probably fall under the category of historical fiction as it refers to America’s pioneering settler days. As such there is a touch of romanticism
about it (for example, there are no Native Americans mentioned or conflicts mentioned, or details about upcoming civil conflict, which is a bit odd given the location this takes place in, even if fictional america with coniferous forests and seasonal changes that warrant sleigh rides with hot potatoes in the pockets of one’s coat to keep one’s hands warm! But still worth a read as it’s utterly feel-good all-around.

Great submitted by humann30 on August 3, 2020, 6:23am Their life seemed to tell us kind of how to survive. I also learned history.

Awesome .... Classic submitted by TLW1998 on June 23, 2022, 11:11pm One of the best books that I have ever read. Laura has a charming way of writing. She is a great story teller, and her stories really paint a picture of what it was like to live as an early American pioneer. My 5-6 year old daughter and I loved reading the entire Little House series together. The books are very enjoyable and educational too. I highly recommend reading the entire collection. This book focuses on their house on the prairie in Indian territory.

Excellent! submitted by snabbleon on August 14, 2023, 2:00pm Classic story that can be enjoyed by children and adults, girls and boys. Definitely worth the read.
