About this ebook
A life on the prairie is not all its cracked up to be for one girl whose mom takes her love of the Little House series just a bit too far.
Charlotte’s mom has just moved the family across the country to live in Walnut Grove, “childhood home of pioneer author Laura Ingalls Wilder.” Mom’s idea is that the spirit of Laura Ingalls will help her write a bestselling book. But Charlotte knows better: Walnut Grove is just another town where Mom can avoid responsibility. And this place is worse than everywhere else the family has lived—it’s freezing in the winter, it’s small with nothing to do, and the people talk about Laura Ingalls all the time. Charlotte’s convinced her family will not be able to make a life on the prairie—until the spirit of Laura Ingalls starts getting to her, too.

OH MY FRICKING GOD YOU NUMB SKULL Caroline is the mother for Christ sake! Charlotte is the Grandma, Martha is the Great-Grandma. And Rose is the daughter! They moved all around to find a better settlement to live a happy life when they are older! Walnut Grove was something of a native reserve that belonged to the natives. They later moved to De Smet where they lived and never moved. Why Why WHY WHY WHY!

I read this book in the fourth grade and I loved it so much. I had forgotten the title but I remembered what it was about and I desperately searched all over the web to no avail. But alas! As I'm searching for some bookshelves for my home library, I stumbled upon this wonderful book. Will definitely be buying to add to my ever growing literary collection.

Deeply average and mostly boring.
