This may have been my favorite #LittleHouse book so far. The introduction of characters I knew was a lot of fun (Nellie Oleson!), and I preferred the more varied setting in this one to the remoteness of the prairie in the previous book. Although the adventures & hardships & dangers certainly didn‘t let up! I can see why these books are so beloved, and I still can‘t believe I never read them as a child. Thank you @Ann_Reads for hosting this one!

Finished a few days early because I couldn't resist reading to the end yesterday!! I really enjoyed this reread from my childhood. While there wasn't as much “how to“ as in the earlier books, there were still plenty of adventures. I felt like we also got to see Laura learn some lessons in maturity as well. This book scarred me up on the subject of grasshoppers when I was a kid, and the discomfort is still with me - so icky! I always loved the ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) cover of this one. I'm sure actually living in a dugout would not be that great, but it always sounded so cozy to me. Thanks so much for hosting the buddy read @Ann_Reads !! Looking forward to our next book @megnews !!

Ann_Reads So glad you enjoyed the book and the discussion. I had fun hosting for this book. 🙂 Although I was a little creeped out by grasshoppers when I was a kid, tomato hornworms grossed me out the most. Ugh! Yuck! Eeeew! (edited) 2mo

TheSpineView Not a fan of bugs in general. Great job getting through this one to despite the grasshoppers. 2mo

TheAromaofBooks @Ann_Reads - I'm not exactly scared of grasshoppers, but they do weird me out. But you're definitely right about those tomato hornworms!!! I still can't stand to touch them 😂 I think it's because they are SO big but also so hard to see!!! I pick the stem they are on and throw the whole thing to the chickens so I don't have to touch them! 😆 2mo

Andrew65 Excellent 👏👏👏 2mo

4.5⭐️Read this for a #littlehouse readalong. Why I like this book is that you can see Laura taking on more responsibilities, but she still can go out and play. Looking forward to starting By the Shores of Silver Lake this coming week #2023 #fiction #bookreview #bookstagram #childrenslit #middlegrade #historicalfiction

I finished this one up a couple of weeks ago. I forgot this was the story that introduced Nellie and so many of the other fantastic characters that found their way into the TV series. I thoroughly enjoyed this one, too. #LittleHouse
