About the book
Laura Ingalls Wilder, whose series of Little House books has charmed millions of readers, was first encouraged to write about her early days on the frontier by her daughter, Rose, who herself wrote about growing up on the family farm. The autobiographical pieces that resulted for publication in magazines and newspapers are gathered together here for the first time, happily reminding us of the kind-hearted, strong-minded Laura, whose high-spirited courage and resilience marked her as a true pioneer and role model. From the log cabins, covered wagons, and hard-working farm life that Laura fondly recalls in fascinating detail to the world travels of her independent daughter, Rose, whose writing career spanned the 1920s to the 1960s, A Little House Sampler is a vivid and personal testament to almost one hundred years of American life and history as seen by two remarkable women.
