| Hi everyone! As I've mentioned before, I'm taking a few courses during the summer semester to satisfy some credits. The one I am taking right now is a Women's Studies course and we are required to write several papers on influential women, women in the news, women in different fields of work, the topics are pretty broad. I thought, this is the perfect opportunity to do something fun - why not write a paper about Laura Ingalls Wilder being a female pioneer? Both literally, on the prairie through her travels from her life, and with her stories. Do you all think this would be a good topic? I have to squeeze it into a 3 - 4 page paper, so I'm trying to think of specific ideas I can mention in the paper now before I actually write it. I know she also wrote newspaper articles and was an influential woman in her community before writing the LH books. And, I know we have a few LIW experts here on our prairie - do any of you have any suggestions, such as, what works of or about LIW I could specifically focus on to find what I need? I have The Donald Zochert book as well as William Anderson's Biography of LIW, that I thought would help on her growing up and history, as well as a few other books. I'm just not sure what works I should particularly focus on to find what I need.
Thanks for your time :)
