This is a wonderful story about a young girl, Rose Wilder, and her parents, Laura and Almanzo Wilder, who move from De Smet, South Dakota to Mansfield, Missouri in the "Land of the Big Red Apple" with their friends, the Cooleys. A wonderful beginning for a wonderful series that ends in "On the Banks of the Bayou". Rose is a wonderful person with a strong spirit. But hey, what would you expect from a little house girl?

I loved reading this book because it picks up the pieces left from Laura Ingalls Wilder's 'The First Four Years" book. I love reading about their journey to the new place and the life that they started for themselves. I recommend this book for all Laura Ingalls Wilder Fans and fans who live reading about the pioneer days.

I love Laura's books and am pleased to say that McBride's follow up was not disappointing. It is well written and puts you in the scene immediately. It's like pulling on a pair of comfortable socks. It was great to find out what happened next with Laura, Almanzo and Rose and I turned each page with increasing interest. The family leave De Smet and make a new life in Missouri where they buy a farm and adjust to a new life. If your a fan of little house, definately one to pick up.

Good but........
This book was okay but I think the original LITTLE HOUSE books were better. But if Luara Ingalls Wilder or Rose Wilder Lane had written it I think it would have been better!
