Description

Like millions of other young fans of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House series, Meribah Knight dreamed of visiting the places Laura described so vividly in the books. For Meribah, her dream came true when she and her family made a pilgrimage to the veloved sites – the big woods, the banks of Plum Creek, the Little Town on the Prairie – places that had changed, but were still magically familiar. With text by Meribah and her mother, Newbery Honor author Kathryn Lasky, and full-color photographs by her father, Christopher G. Knight, the record of the Knights’ memorable journey is must reading for anyone planning a similar trip…and for everyone who wants an up-close-and-personal look at the settings of America’s most cherished pioneer saga.
