After growing up 40 miles from DeSmet, South Dakota, and realizing what they must have gone through, I'm a bit obsessed with that series.<br /><br />And I loved your comment in the comments that the Little House books don't admit they had to use the bathroom!

It was so interesting to experience the transition you felt from frustration and annoyance to understanding and appreciation of the moment: truly seeing the world through someone else's lens.

My boys loved it so they are buying the hardcovers one by one as birthday/holiday gifts for my 6 yr old daughter. And that gives them an excuse to re-read them even if they are officially now into Harry Potter & co.
