Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Long ago, a little girl named Laura Ingalls lived in a little house in the Big Woods of Wisconsin with her Pa, her Ma, her sisters, Mary and Carrie, and their good old bulldog, Jack. Winter was just around the corner, and Laura worked hard to help make the little house ready for the cold days ahead. Soon there was frost on the windows and snow on the ground, but Laura and her folks were warm and cozy in their snug little house in the Big Woods.

Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books have been cherished by generations of readers. Now for the first time, the youngest readers can share her adventures in these very special picture books adapted from Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved storybooks. Renée Graef's warm paintings, inspired by Garth Williams' classic Little House illustrations, bring Laura and her family lovingly to life.

About the Author

Laura Ingalls Wilder (1867–1957) was born in a log cabin in the Wisconsin woods. With her family, she pioneered throughout America’s heartland during the 1870s and 1880s, finally settling in Dakota Territory. She married Almanzo Wilder in 1885; their only daughter, Rose, was born the following year. The Wilders moved to Rocky Ridge Farm at Mansfield, Missouri, in 1894, where they established a permanent home. After years of farming, Laura wrote the first of her beloved Little House books in 1932. The nine Little House books are international classics. Her writings live on into the twenty-first century as America’s quintessential pioneer story.



Renée Graef received her bachelor's degree in art from the University of Wisconsin at Madison. She is the illustrator of numerous titles in the Little House publishing program, as well as Rodgers and Hammerstein's My Favorite Things and E.T.A Hoffman's The Nutcracker, adapted by Janet Schulman. She lives in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, with her husband and two children.

Laura Ingalls Wilder was born in the Wisconsin woods in 1867. She wrote the Little House books based on her own experiences growing up on the Western frontier. Just like the characters in her stories, Laura and her family traveled by covered wagon across the Midwest and experienced many of the same adventures. She finally settled down in Mansfield, Missouri with her husband, Almanzo, where she lived until her death in 1957.

I love this sweet little house book. My children love reading this book each Christmas and so this year I added it to our Christmas book collection. Beautiful pictures with great detail you love to look at over and over and a sweet story that reminds us of how simple Christmas use to be. I always remind my children what Laura and the other children received on Christmas and the ways they made Christmas special without all the stuff.

I loved Little House Prairie books to read when I was kids, so I was thrilled to find these short version books. Got this for my grand daughter that is 5 years old and got to read it to her while visiting and I will always cherish that moment showing her the pictures of the book while I read the book to her. She loved it. I highly recommend these shorter versions for younger children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for 3-7 year olds. Pleasant for the parent doing the reading.

This book is lovely. My oldest has already listened to all the originals, but he liked listening as we used this book to introduce the younger kids to the series. This was great because we ended up getting invited to see a Little House Christmas play not longer after reading this, and our four-year-old definitely understood more of it. The illustrations are just what you'd expect and the text captures the feel of the book.

Notable: our seven-year-old read this enthusiastically, even though he normally trudges through reading. Works for kids reading Level 2 or Level 3 books.

This whole series is quite sweet and the children love them. They make good readers too. The pictures are always so interesting and charming to the children, they love looking at them. They love imagining Laura and her family, especially the little girls. This is good for ages 5 and up. The text is simple and a good intro to the big books.

Christmas in the Big Woods é um livrinho que traz para as crianças menores as personagens da famosa série Little House, de Laura Ingalls Wilder.

A história se passa no Natal, na pequena casinha feita de troncos no meio da floresta, onde Laura vivia com sua família. Eles recebem os primos, brincam na neve, comem panquecas, penduram suas meias na lareira para a chegada do Papai Noel, leem um livro e, por fim, se despedem das visitas.

Christmas in the Big Woods é um daqueles livrinhos que nos fazem valorizar as pequenas alegrias e a simplicidade da vida. As ilustrações são belíssimas, de encher os olhos e perder a hora admirando-as.

Ele faz parte da coleção My First Little House, uma introdução de Little House para os pequenos. A história é bem simples e podemos traduzi-la com facilidade, colando o novo texto no livro para a leitura em português.

I only discovered The Little House books after watching the TV series with all of my children, several years ago. They really inspired me to make life simpler and to be creative. Even though for the Pioneers, it was a necessity, they were always having to use their imagination in order to survive. I bought this for one of my grandchildren, and then had to buy another for myself ! I use technology of course, but it's so good to remember that there is another way .
