About the Author

Laura Ingalls Wilder (1867–1957) was born in a log cabin in the Wisconsin woods. With her family, she pioneered throughout America’s heartland during the 1870s and 1880s, finally settling in Dakota Territory. She married Almanzo Wilder in 1885; their only daughter, Rose, was born the following year. The Wilders moved to Rocky Ridge Farm at Mansfield, Missouri, in 1894, where they established a permanent home. After years of farming, Laura wrote the first of her beloved Little House books in 1932. The nine Little House books are international classics. Her writings live on into the twenty-first century as America’s quintessential pioneer story.

Renée Graef received her bachelor's degree in art from the University of Wisconsin at Madison. She is the illustrator of numerous titles in the Little House publishing program, as well as Rodgers and Hammerstein's My Favorite Things and E.T.A Hoffman's The Nutcracker, adapted by Janet Schulman. She lives in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, with her husband and two children.

Wonderful Christmas Stories From A Simpler Time

Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2019

Verified Purchase

"Christmas Stories" is a small 5 1/4 inch by 7 3/4 inch, 72 page book which contains four short stories from the "Little House On the Prairie" series. The following excerpts are contained in this small book - "Christmas In the Big Woods" from the book - "Little House In the Big Woods," "Christmas On the Prairie" from the book, "Little House on the Prairie," "The Christmas Horses" from the book, "On the Banks of Plum Creek," and "Secrets and Surprises" from the book, "By the Shores of Silver Lake." The greatest value of this book is that all four of these stories convey a much simpler and meaningful Christmas. In these stories we find many virtues which are being lost in today's Christmas Celebrations. Spending quality holiday time with family and friends, appreciating gifts of simplicity and not gift quantity, putting love and yourself into homemade gifts, and sacrificing for each other are all found in these seventy-two pages. I love to read these stories and would highly recommend them for children but adults would also appreciate them. While the stories are good, the quality of paper found inside the book is rather poor and cheap. It will probably tear very easily. I also feel that the Christmas stories from some of the other "little House" series could have been included in this collection of short Christmas stories. The print on the pages is rather large and the book could probably be read in a half hour to forty-five minutes. Each of the stories could be used as a quick read-aloud during the Christmas holidays in the classroom or home. I have given this book a 3 star rating because of the cheap poor quality paper inside the book. By the way. this is the hardback cover edition which says it is library reinforced bound but the pages are still very cheap paper. The book would make a great Christmas stocking stuffer.

My daughter asked for a Christmas chapter book, and this was perfect! We love little house and it’s fun to have all of the Christmas stories in one book. She is in first grade and loves it!

Arrived damaged

The book is well done for a young child’s abridged version, and I was excited to give this to my daughter, but it arrived heavily worn. The front cover is torn and has scuff marks down the front and small tears all over the front cover edges. Looks like it was destroyed in shipping though the envelope was fine.

My daughter loves this series and they are perfect for that 1-4 grade child who isn’t ready to read the longer Little House books yet. These books tell the same stories but are easier to follow and shorter in length.
