No. 23: Little House in the Big Woods

Little House in the Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder

I finally managed to get this first book in the Little House series. It is one of my favorites for sure! I love the sugaring off dance and descriptions of hair and the dresses. I love their cute little life in the woods, and Pa goes off hunting, and they butcher a pig (and play with the bladder and eat the tail - ew) and Pa almost gets attacked by a panther and thinks a tree is a bear. It is all good. Perhaps that is why I got so annoyed with Pa when he decided to move the family west. The woods seem like a nice place to live.
