kimscozyreads 's review for:

The First Four Years by Laura Ingalls Wilder
3.0

I used to really like the Little House books when I was in elementary school, and I thought his would be a good really short book to help me meet my goodreads goal. And wow, their lives really really really really really sucked. Their house burned down, one of their children died, they got diphtheria, they were always in debt, none of the wheat EVER grew, and I wouldn't make it a day in those awful dresses the women had to wear. Somehow the book isn't terribly depressing, which is good since I guess it's really for kids to read. and BONUS: it's not White Fang.
