What is so amazing about the house is how tiny it is -- Laura was quite small as was Almanzo. I read the books 10 times as a child so it was a dream fulfilled to visit her home. Enjoy your blog very much! :) DanaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-1153418869617701392006-07-20T13:07:00.000-05:002006-07-20T13:07:00.000-05:00I'm a LIW fan too.

Laura and Almanzo endured great tradgedy, yet their strength of character shone through as they continued to strive to make something good of their lives...Chrissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08797814680740510055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-1153405593910360392006-07-20T09:26:00.000-05:002006-07-20T09:26:00.000-05:00I love Laura Ingalls Wilder.

My library doesn't have it, so I added it to my Amazon wish list.<BR/>Have you read "Little House in the Ozarks?" She wrote for Missouri Farm papers and even National magazines, long before the Little House books came along. <BR/>This book is filled with so much wisdom, it always inspires me to be a better person. <BR/><BR/>Speaking of calling cards. www.smallmeadowpress.com sells Laura Ingalls Wilder calling cards. They are just beautiful! I mean to order some one of these days.Kellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12959889019639336499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-1153402021346375442006-07-20T08:27:00.000-05:002006-07-20T08:27:00.000-05:00Anna, I actually got to go to the museum when I wa...Anna, I actually got to go to the museum when I was 12. I think it might have been after we visited you. It was wonderful. It is worth the trip. I didn't get to see inside the house because it was closed that day, but the museum had all kinds of delightful tidbits from the books. For some reason I remember seeing the calling cards that her friends gave her in "Little Town on the Prairie". Sally P.S. I agree that "The First Four Years" is highly depressing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
