Happy Birthday Pa Ingalls!
and my Grandpa, both of whom are now deceased. Pa Ingalls was the patriarch of the Ingalls family of the "Little House Books."
I'm a big fan of Laura Ingalls Wilder:)

1. Me too.
I didn't like the show, but I read those books until they were almost in shreds. The Christmas that my mom gave me the whole set was one of the best. I think I disappeared to my room the rest of the day.

I have a great biography of her called "Laura" that has amazing photos in it of the Ingalls and Wilder family.

lovely Stories.

2. Me, too!
I read every book over and over as a kid and own a couple now. I also got some picture books about Laura Ingalls Wilder. I liked the TV show at first but, like most shows, it began to deviate from the original story a little too much, especially with the emphasis on religion that I do not remember in the books.
