On the Banks of Plum Creek


**Links: Book 1 * Book 2 * Book 3**

I'm still in love with this series. After a book away from Laura and her family, it's so nice to be back with them again.

They have moved to Minnesota in this book. But things are not all well. Their first crop of wheat is destroyed by a plague of grasshoppers. The next year, they can't get a harvest of wheat because the grasshoppers had laid eggs and ruined the soil. Then, the blizzards start. It is a tough time for them. But through it all, they have each other, and that makes everything wonderful.

If only things could be that simple now.

My three year old loves having me read this to her at night, and I love reliving the series.
