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.

I love this book. It describes the fun and hardships of Rose Wilder, dauter of Laura and Almonzo Wilder.

An okay book. It follows Laura Ingalls Wilder's travels after she marries and has a kid. No where near as good as the books actually written by her, but worth the read for a die-hard Laura fan.

This is the first in a series about Rose Wilder Lane, only child of Laura Ingalls Wilder. This book was written by Rose's honorary grandson. An excellent addition to any Little House collection.

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.

This is a beautiful book and story. Meet Rose Wilder, Laura Ingalls Wilder's daughter, and the last of the Little House girls.

Rose and her parents, Laura and Almanzo, 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 at the end is the promise of a new home and a new life for the Wilders.

Little House on Rocky Ridge is the first book in The Rose Years, an ongoing series about another spirited girl from America's most beloved pioneer family.

Rose becomes a fiction writer when she grows up.
