This is one of
those series that every little girl is supposed to read (and love) during their
childhood. I never did! So I decided I should see what it is all about. The
narrator was awesome, but I couldn’t get into the story. I know the time period
was long ago, but I hated Pa. He favored the boys and wouldn’t let the girls go
sledding or play with dolls on Sunday – playing with dolls is NOT work. So I
tried to listen as though I am a much younger girl; I still don’t think it
would have interested me. I enjoy stories with character development and an
exciting plot. I am not saying that hearing about how the pioneers lived wasn’t
interesting; I kept waiting for something to happen and I do believe I would have
wanted excitement and a climax as a young girl too.
