The journey continues....

Once a long time ago a little girl named Laura Ingalls lived in the Big Woods of Wisconsin, in a little house made of logs. She grew up and wrote nine books about her childhood---the famous Little House stories.

Laura had a daughter of her own named Rose, who grew up in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, also in a little house made of logs. LITTLE HOUSE ON ROCKY RIDGE is the beginning of Rose's story, which starts where the book THE FIRST FOUR YEARS ends.

Laura, Almanzo, and Rose say good-bye to Ma and Pa Ingalls and Laura's sisters. In a covered wagon containing all their possessions, they make their way across the drought-stricken Midwest to the lush green valleys of southern Missouri. The journey is long and not always easy. But there is so much to do and see as the landscape changes along the way.

The end of the journey marks a new beginning for the Wilder family: a new home and the promise of hard work, but also of wonderous discoveries and adventures to fill a childhood.

This book is a great continuation of the Laura Ingalls/Rose Wilder story. It tells the story of the family's move from the Dakotas to Missouri and of their life settling into their new home.
