On the Banks of Plum Creek

I liked this volume of the Wilder series best because I liked the idea of living in a riverbank. Simplistic, perhaps more so than the log house - it seemed like an almost cavelike aproach to living. I'm using the internet, which belies my luddite tendancies, but still.

Ingalls Wilder manages to weave a coherant narrative from her life experiences, which is unusual and also - given the era in which they took place - instructive.

This is nothing like the saccharine laced television series.

I loved these books when I was a girl, I think I read all of them.
