Across the Puddingstone Dam

Book arrived quickly and in shape described. I am very satisfied with the seller. Thanks.

Across the Puddingstone Dam is a wonderful book about how Charlotte Tucker, future mother of Caroline Quiner, who is the future mother of Laura Ingalls, grows up in her rapidly expanding town in the East. It is full of wonderful descriptions, that Little House readers have come to love, and seems to be fairly historically kosher. It is refreshing to get the history that precedes Little House...Charlotte is a feisty and smart little girl, and has many realistic interactions with her brothers, sisters and neighbors...this book will not disappoint! I highly recommend all of these books to the Little House lover.

A great book about Charlotte Tucker , who is Laura Ingalls Grandmother and her life as a eleven year old. Also a sad book as well but you have to find out why it is sad. All of the Charlotte years books are great and tell about Laura's Grandmother's journey with her parents as a little girl and the hardships she had to face during her life. Also Charlotte's mom gets a big suprise visit from someone in her life that she hasn't seen in years. -- Charlotte is shocked by this visit because she doesn't know who the person is. -- Read this book to find out who the mystery guest is. Overall if you love reading about the Little house Series , you will love this book . Happy Reading everyone.

Laura Ingalls Wilder fans are likely to be skeptical when first they encounter prequels written by modern authors. Melissa Wiley puts to rest all doubts of even the staunchest Wilder loyalists. This is a beautifully crafted book. Written in prose that is almost lyrical, the story is expertly woven. With Charlotte, the little girl who will become Laura's grandmother, readers young and old learn lessons of life, love, and loss. There is a dearth of wholesome, meaningful books for today's young readers. This book fills that void to overflowing.I highly recommend all of Melissa Wiley's Little House books. Parents should read them aloud to their children--they're too good for adults to miss!

if you are a fan of all of the little house books you will not be disapointed with this one. There is enough to keep your intrest going as well as some good storylines that teach children valuable lessons in life.
