As a longtime fan of the Laura
Ingalls Wilder’s “Little House” series, I was pleased to find that someone had
compiled a book of recipes for foods featured in the Little House books. What
makes this book such a gem is the collection of quotes from the books as well
as descriptions of the food and cooking from pioneer times. Step-by-step
instructions on how to re-create the recipes are included along with excellent
photographs of the foods themselves and the famous Garth Williams’s
illustrations featured in Laura’s books. This book is written more for adults
than for children, but with assistance, older kids should be able to make some
of these recipes if they can find the ingredients.
(If you enjoy this, you may also
wish to try The Laura Ingalls Wilder Country Cookbook by Laura Ingalls
Wilder or My Prairie Cookbook by Melissa Gilbert.)
