collection


Hi, there are books by Rebecca Caudill that are a lot like little house
books.  There are books also such as little house by boston bay, Brookfield
days, Old town in the green groves, The road to Roxbury and many others by
other authors that tell about Laura Ingalls Wilder's mother and grandmother
when they were girls.  Bookshare and NLS have some but not all of these
books.  Some of them were designed for small children but they are really
neat books to learn how these people lived and what they did for fun and all
this stuff.  Hope this helps.  Have a blessed day.
