Laura Ingalls Wilder, Pioneer

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in pioneering days? Thanks to authors like Laura Ingalls Wilder, we can get a pretty good idea of what it was like. Laura Ingalls Wilder was born on February 7, 1867, and we know a lot about her because of her Little House on the Prairie book series.
