Last night, we finished one of my favorite books of all time-Farmer Boy, by Laura Ingalls Wilder. It is one of the books in the Little House series, written about her husband as a 10 year old farm boy in New York.
Oh, we laughed at Almanzo's antics! We enjoyed hearing all about farm life. And how hard he worked, from sun up to sun down! We were so excited when he won the blue ribbon at the fair, and then when he got $200 for returning a wallet- with some persuasion from a 3rd party- we were so happy for him! The best part of all is when he found out he would finally be trusted to train a little colt! What a wonderful ending to a wonderful book.
Lacy and I adored the moments we had reading this book together. Every moment was entertaining and also educational.
Yes, Lacy was thrilled when she got the box set of Little House books. And she loves each book she's read. I do too.
