Publisher's Description of Little Prairie House (My First LH)

With the My First Little House picture book series, the youngest readers can share in the joy of Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books in these illustrated adaptations of the beloved series!

Laura, Pa, Ma, Mary, and baby Carrie have traveled from the Big Woods to the prairie in their covered wagon, driving through tall grass until they found just the right spot for their new home. With the help of their kind neighbor, Mr. Edwards, Pa builds a snug little house for the family in the middle of the wide-open prairie.

Renee Graef's illustrations are based on Garth Williams' classic artwork.

Category Description for My First Little House Books

Little House on the Praire books are designed especially for early readers, these adaptations of the original Little House series feature simpler storylines and events from the books, formatted like a picture book. Each page contains a few lines of text for beginning readers, and the rest of the page is softly and beautifully illustrated based on the style of Garth Williams. All in all, they have done an excellent job in keeping the text of the story in keeping with the original books, so much I almost recognize some of the lines from the original Little House on the Praire series. For young children that "want to read it themselves" and enjoy looking at the pictures, this is a great easy reader alternative or introduction to Little House. - Jess

I highly recommend this book series for children especially little girls Although I read the original series aloud to my 2 and 5 year olds (yes they listened very intently!) this series is fun to read and had sweet pictures and definitely more on the level that my 2 yr old could appreciate These are beautiful sweet and short versions of the originals and I think every little girl needs these in her book collection
