Description: Box Set of 9 Little House on the Prairie paperback books by Laura Ingalls Wilder in very good condition with shelf box included. Laura Ingalls Wilder was born in the Wisconsin woods in 1867. She wrote the Little House books based on her own experiences growing up on the Western frontier. Just like the characters in her stories, Laura and her family traveled by covered wagon across the Midwest and experienced many of the same adventures. She finally settled down in Mansfield, Missouri with her husband, Almanzo, where she lived until her death in 1957. Bonus book: West from Home Letters of Laura Ingalls Wilder San Francisco 1915 Copyright 1974 Printed 1976 ISBN 0-06-440081-6 Edited by Roger Lea Mac Bride historical setting by Margot Patterson Doss Harper Trophy Book In 1915 San Francisco was alive with the excitement of a great world's fair, the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. Laura Ingalls Wilder came to San Francisco at the urging of her married daughter, Rose Wilder Lane, to visit the city and to see the marvelous attractions at the fair. Laura, who as a child had traveled through the Midwest by covered wagon, now made the trip from Missouri to California by train. Since her husband, Almanzo, could not leave the farm, she wrote long letters to him to share the excitement and wonders of her trip. These letters, discovered after her death, reveal the active curiosity. and warm personality of the woman who was later to write the classic "Little House" books for children. This “Bonus Book” is an exciting addition to the boxed set. For young adult and adult readers. It was purchased at a school library sale so it has some wear. I would say “good” condition, because it is certainly readable, but it has stains on bottom, and library card in back - see photos. Books are from my smoke free, pet free home where they have been sitting on a shelf for the past 15 years. My daughter has outgrown them, and would rather have the profit at the point. Her loss = your gain! I am listing other “Little House” items, so please take a minute to check out my other listings. Thanks for shopping.
