I've lost count of how many times I've read these books over the years. Laura and Mary are old friends to me. I bought this full color set a few years ago to replace my childhood copies that were falling apart. I always liked the illustrations, but with color added they are simply beautiful.
Thực sự đối với một đứa thích nước Mỹ của 'những năm đã xưa'thì đây quả là một bộ sách tuyệt vời.Nếu bạn đang mong đợi một lối hành văn hay banh nóc thì ở bộ này không có đâu,chủ yếu là tập trung vào bối cảnh.Cho 5 stars bởi bộ này thường dành cho trẻ em(tất nhiên người lớn đọc cũng được)
I bought this box set for Hannah and we are going to read them together. I have fond memories of reading these books when I was a kid. Once we're done with these I'm thinking of starting the Anne of Green Gables series. It's great to revisit these classics with my book-loving daughter!
I just finished these first 5 books, and they're every bit as good as I remember them being as a child. Maybe I love them even more because I'm reading them more from Ma's point of view than Laura's. I can't wait to read these treasures to my kids!
I've heard so many people say these books were boring. Granted, I was a strange child, but I loved them. I loved all the descriptions of how they did things, and all the "typical day" chapters, as well as the ones that actually advanced the "plot." I wanted to know what Laura's life was like, and she told me.
I purchased this leather bound edition for my collection, as these were my absolute favorite books as a child, and I ended up re-reading each of the novels. They were just as perfect as I remembered.
I read these books when I was younger and loved them. When I saw the first five books were collected in a beautiful new binding I had to pick this up and re-read them. I appreciate them even more now, knowing the politics of the frontier and the many dangers people faced in the 1870s-1880s. Laura has an amazing gift for storytelling, painting pictures with her words, as her sister Mary said after Mary went blind due to scarlet fever. I only hope the other books are collected in another binding, as beautiful as this one is. Highly recommended for people young and old.
