For the first time in the history of the Little House books,
this new edition features Garth Williams'' interior art in vibrant,
full color, as well as beautifully redesigned covers. While Laura
Ingalls grows up in a little house on the western prairie, Almanzo
Wilder is living on a big farm in New York State. Here Almanzo and
his brother and sisters help with the summer planting and fall
harvest. In winter there is wood to be chopped and great slabs of
ice to be cut from the river and stored. Time for fun comes when
the jolly tin peddler visits, or best of all, when the fair comes
to town. This is Laura Ingalls Wilder''s beloved story of how her
husband Almanzo grew up as a farmer boy far from the little house
where Laura lived.
關於作者:
Laura Ingalls Wilder was born in 1867 in the log cabin
described in Little House in the Big Woods. She and her family
traveled by covered wagon across the Midwest. Later, Laura and her
husband, Almanzo Wilder, made their own covered-wagon trip with
their daughter, Rose, to Mansfield, Missouri. There, believing in
the importance of knowing where you began in order to appreciate
how far you''ve come, Laura wrote about her childhood growing up on
the American frontier. For millions of readers Laura lives on
forever as the little pioneer girl in the beloved Little House
books.
