Assess Epithetical Books By the Shores of Silver Lake (Little House #5)

Another enjoyable read. Laura is growing up and while the story is still kid friendly there are some more serious things that happened that made it less lighthearted than the previous book. A couple things early on even made me cry a little (view spoiler)[ Jack the dog's death and learning that Mary went blind due to an illness that occurred somewhere between this book and the last. (hide spoiler)] In spite of these sad things it was still interesting to see the way Laura is maturing and

These books give such a view into the psyche of America back when the land was being settled. The pace is slow compared to today's literature, but there is something here. One of the best parts of the book is toward the end. The Ingalls family are living out on the prairie alone during the winter. The spring comes and droves of men begin coming through. The Ingalls have the only house so they all stay with them. The town literally is put up in two weeks. I was shocked. I can't believe how that

Like every book in the series this one is filled with moments of poignant hardship (Mary going blind) and sweet levity. Pas wanderlust hasnt rested, but hes agreed for Mas sake to stay put. About time, is what I have to say to that. She put up with a lot, that woman.

Im rereading these for the first time since I was a child inspired by Gretchen Rubins comment in Happier At Home about how Laura Ingalls Wilder is so adept at describing the concept and atmosphere of home. Shes so right. Im sure I totally identified with Laura and Mary as a child but rereading them as an adult, I cannot stop putting myself in Mas place, constantly moving and having to establish a new home from scratch. I can read between the lines as an adult and understand that Ma was not

I still like Farmer Boy a little bit better, but of the stories about the Ingalls family, this one is the strongest so far. Charles Ingalls is definitely the main character of the series. Through the absolutely adoring eyes of Laura, our narrator, we see what a kind and loving father he was. Based on the events of the series so far, he was really weird. Much more anti-social than a guy desperate for opportunity. In a society where women like the Ingalls women had almost no power, Charles dragged

This isn't my favorite of the Little House books, but I still enjoyed it. Reading through as an adult, I am so amazed at the things "Ma" went through - wow. I love the view of settling the American West through the eyes of a child - they were in some really dangerous situations. Anyway, it's a great "comfort food" series for me.
