Hello! My name is Laura. I was born a long, long time ago, in the year 1867. When I was a little girl, my family and I were pioneers. That means we traveled to new places to build our home. We rode in a big covered wagon pulled by horses. It felt like a big adventure! I traveled with my Pa, my Ma, and my sisters, Mary and Carrie. Later, my little sister Grace was born.
We lived in little houses that my Pa built with his own two hands. Sometimes our house was a cozy log cabin in the woods. Sometimes it was a house made of sod on the wide-open prairie. I loved helping Ma with chores like churning butter and fetching water from the well. I played outside with my sisters, running through the tall grass and watching the big, blue sky. Everything felt like a fun game, even the hard work.
When I grew up, I wanted my own daughter to know all about my adventures. So, around the year 1932, I started writing them down in books. I wrote books called the 'Little House' books all about my family and our life as pioneers. I lived to be 90 years old. My favorite thing is that children just like you can still read my stories today and imagine what it was like to be a pioneer girl a long time ago.
