This
is the story of 6-year-old Caroline Quiner. You might know her better
by her grown-up name, Caroline Ingalls. Long before she met Charles
Ingalls and moved to the little house on the prairie, Caroline lived with
her mother in Brookfield, Wisconsin. The family consisted of two
older brothers, Joseph and Henry, an older sister, Martha and two younger
siblings. This is the story of Caroline's year after her father was
lost at sea. The family is struggling to survive both emotionally
and financially. An early winter frost ruins most of the vegetables
that the family was depending on to get them through the winter.
How will the family survive with little to eat? Join Caroline
as she learns to help her mother with everyday chores. Spend the
cold winter with them in the Little House in Brookfield. |
