59. Laura Ingalls Wilder


The same year FDR was elected, 1932, people read the first of the "Little House" books. Lauran Ingalls Wilder (1867-1957) wrote about her pioneer girldhood. It heartened folks going through tough times to read about the loving Ingalls family surviving on the frontier.

  1. I actually know the "Ghost Writer" for the later Little House books that were supose to be written by Laura's great nephew. I also know the illustrator of those books. They live right here in PA. out in Bucks County.

  2. How cool is that? We wonder who that "Ghost Writer" is.
