  • My daughter loved it!

    We have enjoyed reading the Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, and the Rose Years books. So excited there are books about the ancestors as well. Purchased and reading through all of them in order!

  • Great series!

    Me and my daughter love this series. So glad to finally have the complete set now to go along with the other Little House on the Prairie books/series. Even as an adult I still love and enjoy these as much as the first time I read them.

  • Good buy overall!

    The product showed wear but not anything terrible. There was some coloring on the pages that had pictures but nothing that was too distracting. Good easy read and good content for kids!
