It was a good book. |
That sounds like an interesting book, Marilyn. Who is the author? I'll have to look for it! |

| Thanks Marilyn  I'll put that on my list of books to get (that seems to forever be growing, LOL). I have some used books that I just bought really cheap that I have to read before I allow myself to buy anything new. :)

| I saw the LIW: Farm Journalist at a bookstore. I was tempted to buy it, but it said that a portion of the book has been printed in the "Little House in the Ozarks" and was curious as to how much of Farm Journalist is in LH in the Ozarks?
I also recently saw that there's a book about Nellie? Is that any good?

I'd love to get a few more books... such as Dear Laura and The Little House Reader. I'd also like to get the last three extra series books in hardback.
I'm checking the sites someone listed to see if they have what I need. :)
I think it's a shame that they're dumbing down the extra series books. It makes me very angry.  I first read the first two Little House books when I was six years old. How much younger do they expect kids to be to read the books?
