The Long Winter - Laura Ingalls Wilder (CD)
Title: Title: The Long Winter Author: Laura Ingalls Wilder Genre: Fiction / Classics – General Format: CD Synopsis: The adventures of Laura Ingalls and her family continue as Pa, Ma, Laura, Mary, Carrie, and little Grace bravely face the hard winter of 1880-81 in their little house in the Dakota Territory. Blizzards cover the little town with snow, cutting off all supplies from the outside. Soon there is almost no food left. so voting Almanzo Wilder and a friend make a dangerous trip across the prairie to find some wheat. Finally a joyous Christmas is celebrated in a very unusual way in this most exciting of all the Little house books. And so continues Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved story of a pioneer girl and her family. The nine Little House books have been cherished by generations of readers as both a unique glimpse into America's frontier past and a heartwarming, unforgettable story. Review: Children’s Literature This traditional paperback-sized reprint should be easier for a new generation of fans to keep track of, although older fans will miss the wonderful Garth Williams illustrations that made the original paperbacks and hardbacks such a treat. A line on the cover trumpets "30 million copies sold," and there is a reason for that: after all these years, it's still a compelling story. Modern kids who think "deprivation" means having the cable TV go out will be astonished by the fortitude of the hardy Ingalls family, who holed up in the kitchen during a blizzard season, living on bread and tea and twisting hay into sticks to keep the stove going. Wilder's short, declarative style makes the book accessible to kids who are just beginning to read on their own, and her gripping story will keep them turning the pages. 2003 (orig. 1940), Avon Books/HarperCollins, Ages 9 up.
