Summary: New Beginnings
Comment: Laura Ingalls tells about her childhood experiences as her family travels from Minnesota to settle in South Dakota. She gives an account of how their lives changed from living in a more settled area in Minnesota compared to living in unsettled land which later becomes De Smet. Mary, Laura's older sister, has lost her sight to scarlet fever, and Laura hopes that she will someday be able to attend a college for the blind. Although Laura works very hard she rarely complains. She enjoys singing with her father as he plays the fiddle. Ingall's gives clear pictures of what life was like for a girl growing up in early American History. As an adult this was my first experience reading one of Laura Ingalls Wilder's "Little House" books; I found it most informative and enjoyable. This book is a great way for children to learn what life was like during the pioneer era.

Comment: She went thorouh many hardships. While her father was store keeper of a railroad. Her family then was forced to go west for the winter. Laura did not want to go west for the winter. Then they were offered to live in a surveyors house while the surveyor was out for the winter. The house was all supplied because the surveyor thought that they were going to stay there for the winter. They thought that that was a dream house. It had everything they needed. Then everybody started coming to Desmet to get settled and there house was the only place to stay so they started charging people for it. Then Pa had to go and get the claim on there homestead. While he was gone some drunks stayed at there house.
