A pioneer family travels west by covered wagon, facing hardship and finding joy.
This boxed set gathers all nine Little House books, Laura Ingalls Wilder's stories of her pioneer childhood, illustrated by Garth Williams.

Storms, grasshopper plagues and hard winters test them, but love and courage carry them through.
The Little House books tell the story of Laura Ingalls Wilder, who, with her family, was among the early pioneers of the American west. Born in 1867 in a little log cabin on the edge of the Big Woods in Wisconsin, Laura traveled with her family by covered wagon through Kansas, Minnesota, and finally the Dakota Territory, where she met and married Almanzo Wilder. There was deprivation and hard work. Crops were ruined by storms and grasshopper plagues. But there were also happy times of love and laughter, sleigh rides, holiday celebrations, and socials. These nine books, beloved by children for generations, capture the very best of the American pioneer spirit.
