Laura and her family travel by covered wagon on a freezing day. Their old home, where they used to live, has been left far behind. The horses cross lakes of ice and snow; in those days, there were no big planes or cars. When her family settled in Plum Creek, far from their previous home, new adventures, spectacular landscapes, and extreme weather awaited Laura. Laura prepared to be a teacher, a farmer's wife, and a storyteller, and she lived through one of the most exciting times in United States history. Through her beloved books, including Little House on the Prairie, she captured millions of readers across many generations. Now, the Little Readers collection brings you, in a picture book, the remarkable and inspiring story of Laura Ingalls Wilder. (1867–1957)
