Learn moreBased on the real-life adventures of Laura Ingalls Wilder, On the Banks of Plum Creek is the fourth book in the award-winning Little House series, which has captivated generations of readers.
The adventures of Laura Ingalls and her family continue as they leave their little house on the prairie and travel in their covered wagon to Minnesota. They settle into a house made of sod on the banks of beautiful Plum Creek. Soon Pa builds them a sturdier house, with real glass windows and a hinged door. Laura and Mary go to school, help with the chores around the house, and fish in the creek.ย Paโs fiddle lulls them all to sleep at the end of the day.ย But then disaster strikesโon top of a terrible blizzard, a grasshopper infestation devours their wheat crop.ย Now the family must work harder than ever to overcome these challenges.
The nine books in the timeless Little House series tell the story of Lauraโs real childhood as an American pioneer, and are cherished by readers of all generations. They offer a unique glimpse into life on the American frontier, and tell the heartwarming, unforgettable story of a loving family sticking together through thick and thin.
Laura Ingalls Wilder (1867โ1957) was born in a log cabin in the Wisconsin woods. With her family, she pioneered throughout Americaโs 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 Americaโs quintessential pioneer story.
