A Trip Down Memory Lane,
By A Customer
This review is from: Prairie Day (My First Little House) (Paperback)
I am the mother of a two year old daughter and was delighted to find the magic of the Laura Ingalls Wilder books captured in a format that is perfect for small children. As a child, I became fascinated with the adventures of Laura, Mary and their baby sister Carrie. Prairie Day is a synopsis of the Little House on the Prairie book. With vivid drawings that have been inspired by the artwork on the original covers by Garth Williams, Renee Graef manages to convey the story in pictures that have captured the imagination of my daughter. I look forward to sharing with her the original books in the future, but meanwhile we will continue to enjoy the series of books that Prairie Day is a part of.

A Classic for Young Children,
By
This review is from: Prairie Day (My First Little House) (Paperback)
Prairie Day, an adaptation from the Little House on the Prarie classic series, will delight children and peak their interest in Pioneering life. The illustrations capture the attention and imagination of young children, whetting their appetite for more.This adaptation shows kids that riding accross the prairie in a covered wagon is not all "fun and games." What do pioneering families do when the ride gets a bit "boring?" Take a break, of course! Kids will enjoy learning what kinds of foods pioneering families ate, how they cooked and what they did without hotels while travelling accross America.

This review is from: Prairie Day (My First Little House) (Paperback)
I absolutely love the whole My First Little House series. Beautiful artwork and lovely, simple language that captures the heart and feeling of the original little house books but makes them accessible for younger readers. Just a great series of picture books!
