Did You Know? - Wilder, Laura Ingalls (1867-1957)
One of the best-known children's authors, Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote the popular, autobiographical "Little House" novels about herlate-nineteenth-century childhood on the American frontier. Published in the 1930s and 1940s, these eight books were considered classics of children's literature by the 1950s and have appealed to every succeeding generation of readers who thirsted for nostalgia.
