Book Of The Month:
Little House on the Prairie
By Laura Ingalls Wilder
It’s time for our annual re-read of the Little House books — and next up is Book 3: Little House on the Prairie!
In this beloved installment, the Ingalls family leaves the Big Woods behind and heads west to the Kansas prairie, where they build a new home from the ground up. Alongside the challenges of pioneer life — wild weather, new neighbors, and the realities of settling on unfamiliar land — come moments of resilience, resourcefulness, and heart.
This book brings the wide-open prairie to life, showing us not just how the Ingalls lived, but how they stayed close, hopeful, and brave through every unknown.
