Originally published
from 1932 to 1943, Laura Ingalls Wilder''s Little House books
are classics of children''s literature, beloved by millions. But
readers who last enjoyed them as children may be astonished at the
quiet poetry of Wilder''s prose and the force and poignancy of her
portrait of the lives of American pioneers. Now The Library of
America and editor Caroline Fraser present a definitive boxed set
that affirms Wilder''s place in the American canon, reintroducing
these enduring works to readers young and old. Here, for the first
time in two collectible hardcover volumes, are all eight Little
House novels—brilliant narratives of the early life of Laura
Ingalls and her family as they grow up with the country in the
woods, on the plains, and finally in the small towns of the
advancing American frontier—plus the posthumous novella The
First Four Years, which recounts the early years of the
author''s marriage to Almanzo Wilder. As a special feature, four
rare autobiographical pieces address the need for historical
accuracy in children''s literature, reveal real life events not
included in the novels, and answer the inevitable question: what
happened next? Contains:VOLUME ONELittle House in the Big
