The adventures of Laura Ingalls and her family continue as Laura grows up in the little town on the prairie. Fifteen-year-old Laura lives apart from her family for the first time, teaching school in a claim shanty twelve miles from home. She is very homesick, but keeps at it so that she can help pay for her sister Mary’s tuition at the college for the blind. During school vacations Laura has fun with her singing lessons, going on sleigh rides, and best of all, helping Almanzo Wilder drive his new buggy. Friendship soon turns to love for Laura and Almanzo in the romantic conclusion of this Little House book.

This beautiful hardback edition of These Happy Golden Years will be cherished by generations to come. It is an original edition, complete with the Garth Williams illustrations that have, sadly, been deleted in the new paperback editions.

This is Book 8 in the Little House series.
