Cover art of the children's book Pioneer Girl: The Life of Laura Ingalls Wilder Laura Ingalls Wilder was born on February 7, 1867. Her Little House series about life as a pioneer girl began with the publication of Little House in the Big Woods in 1932. Historian William Anderson, a Wilder scholar, has written several biographies of Laura Ingalls Wilder for children. For three of my favorites, see my recommended Biographies of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Did you read the Little House books when you were a child? Have your children read them? Let me know by clicking on "Comments" below and posting a message.
