Though best known as the author of the Little House books, Laura Ingalls Wilder led a full, rich life that spanned almost a century of American history. All through her life Laura saved mementos of her past, including early writings, letters, drawings, and photographs, which have been lovingly preserved in private and public collections across the country.

Now, for the first time ever, these photographs, writings, and memorabilia have been gathered together in one incredible volume by noted Little House historian William Anderson. Each gorgeous page of LAURA'S ALBUM is a doorway into the private world of Laura Ingalls Wilder, and offers a unique glimpse of what her life was like. Here is the fascinating true story of this remarkable pioneer woman's life as well as an unforgettable tale of our own American past.

I brought back my childhood by investigating Laura Ingalls Wilder. I LOVED the Little House books! And I found this book. So many photos and mementos of her life that SHE saved. The story that goes with the mementos is fascinating. So many things I didn’t know about how she got the books published and how old she was at the time. If you were a Little House fan, this book is a must.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this scrapbook of Laura’s. Seeing new and familiar photos of her family, along with bits of poems, essays that she wrote when she was a child, etc.

After having read the Little House books last year, I picked this children's book about Laura Ingalls Wilder. The title says it all--it's a scrapbook of photographs, postcards and letters she kept. The memorabilia are interesting and the text is perfect for the age group.

I found this book while looking for the best titles to recommend in the Author's Notes for one of my own books, and I was impressed with the combination of innovative research, good storytelling, and illustrative photos and artifacts. It reveals a great deal not only about a beloved author but also about a memorable era in American history. Nicely done!

An interesting collection of Laura Ingalls Wilder ephemera with a synopsis of her life and career. If you’re a Laura fanatic like me, you probably won’t learn much new, but it was fun to see the family photos and handwritten letters (although many were illegible). Some day I would love to visit the sites from her books in person!
