By Wendy McClureThe author is a HUGE fan of the Little House books, and documents her adult journey of her juvenile obsession. McClure tries her hand at churning butter, wades by the banks of Plum Creek, and visits the annual summer pageant in Laura's hometown, among other down-home, pioneer experiences.
Not being a true Little House fan myself, I read this book like an adult indulging a small child. It was interesting, but I couldn't connect with the over-the-top mania. That being said, I liked her willingness to explore. McClure is a city girl, so her reaction to being trapped in a "covered wagon" during an intense hail and lightning storm in South Dakota is great... I loved it.
