Laura Ingalls Wilder was born in 1867 in the log cabin described in 'Little House in the Big Woods'. She and her family travelled by covered wagon across the frontier, and when she was grown, she wrote about her adventures in the Little House books. The Little House Chapter Books are written for children who want to share in the adventures of everyone's favorite pioneer girl, Laura Ingalls, but who are not quite ready for the classic Little House novels.
