“IT WAS A HOT afternoon with a strong wind from the south, but out on the Dakota prairie in 1885 no one minded the hot sunshine or the hard winds.”
Laura Ingalls Wilder was an American writer known for the Little House on the Prairie series of children's novels (1932 to 1943) based on her childhood in a settler family, which were the basis for the television series 'Little House on the Prairie' during the 1970s and early 1980s.
