This well-loved copy of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s classic “Little House on the Prairie” offers a glimpse into the pioneer life of the Ingalls family as they journey westward in the late 19th century. Published in 1935, it was the third installment in Wilder’s beloved Little House series, which vividly captured the struggles and joys of frontier living.
