Although this book (really more like a booklet) isn't very long, it provides excellent details about the Ingalls family. Particularly interesting were the details on Carries life. While Laura was remarkable, in ways I think Carrie was even more so. She was a printer by trade and traveled the State of South Dakota working on different papers owned by a Mr. Senn. She also held down a homestead before finally marrying a mine owner who lived at the foot of the Black Hills.

It also contains some pictures of family members that I have never seen before (esp. of Charles and Carolines parents.) I highly recommend this book to Laura Ingalls Wilders fans and it is such an easy read that children will enjoy it.The only disappointing thing about the book is that it is so short.

Although in a short, booklet format, this is one my favorite Little House resources because it contains many things you don't find in other bios. I especially love the pictures of Laura and Mary as children (it's neat comparing them to Garth William's illustrations)!

You will also love to learn what the future held for sisters Mary, Grace and Carrie.

I would wager this little booklet is essential addition to any Little House collection.

I enjoyed this booklet on the Ingalls family. There is always so much written about Laura. It was great hearing about Carrie and Grace, and their lives. It is interesting that Carrie had such a career in the newspaper business, then married in her 40's with an already made family! I think that Laura's sisters are pretty remarkable in their own right. It was great to hear about them.
