I hit the jackpot!
The internet can be a beautiful thing. First I found the complete series of Heidi, my favorite cartoon from my early childhood and now... I have found the complete series of Laura, The Prairie Girl!
Laura, The Prairie Girl was a Japanese anime TV series based on the novels Little House in the Big Woods and Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder. For twenty-six weeks in 1975 and 1976, the animated television series “Sôgen no shôjô Laura” (Laura the Prairie Girl) aired in Japan. The series adapted stories from two of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s “Little House” books: Little House in the Big Woods and Little House on the Prairie. In 1982, the 24-minute episodes were dubbed in Spanish and shown in Spain, Mexico, and Peru as “Laura la niña de la Pradera.”
I found a place in Mexico where they sell it and it is high demand so it is listed as not available in the website, but after communicating with the woman there, I was able to order it and I should get it within 20 days. Can't wait!
Here is a sample of the cartoon

I loved them, but I couldn't watch them complete... They were fun , since I couldn't help but think that Laura looked VERY much like Heidi and Mary was a Clara Sessemann look-a-like... Oh...and Caroline was too similar too Brigitta's, Peter's mother in "Heidi".

Very cute I don't think I need to know Spanish, I know Laura's story and could follow along without knowing the words.
