Summary: Life before the little house
Comment: This book follows a year in the life of six-year-old Caroline who will grow up to be Laura Ingalls Wilder's mother.
I love the Little House on the Prairie Books by Laura Ingalls Wilder and anticipated really enjoying this book. I am left questioning its place. The language is not easier than the original series, but it is about a younger child. I'm not even sure who wrote this book. The author's name does not appear on the jacket. Although Wilkes' name is on the title page, a note on the copyright page says adapted by someone else.
The illustrations try to approximate the original series, but are not quite the same flavor. It's like vanilla ice cream with an artificial sweetener instead of sugar.
You will not be giving a child a shorter Laura Ingalls Wilder book, but if your reader refuses to pick up a longer book, this may be appropriate.
