Little House on the Prarie By Laura Ingalls Wilder

Little House on the Prarie books are great for teaching children about the United States before it was discovered and developed. This is the second book of the series and it is a great book to either read aloud in the classroom or for children to read on their own. There are also some great lessons to learn throughout the book as the Wilder family befriend the indians and also work together as a family to get through hard times. The pictures in the book help to paint a picture of the setting throughout the story.
