Little Town on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder

Little Town on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder continues the Little House books. The Long Winter is over, the prairie is filling up and Laura is old enough to get summer work sewing in the growing town. When winter comes the Ingalls family again move into the town, but this winter is mild and sunny. At first Laura hates living in town but soon she is enjoying town life, even when her old enemy, Nellie Olsen, moves to town and the school has the unfair Miss Wilder as teacher. But Laura must continue to work hard at school in order to get a teacher’s certificate so that she can earn money to help her sister Mary continue at the College for the Blind. Another beautiful account of growing up and American pioneering life.
