Editorial Review (from Amazon.com)
Laura Ingalls Wilder is beginning life with her new husband, Almanzo, in their own little house. Laura is a young pioneer wife now, and must work hard with Almanzo, farming the land around their home on the South Dakota prairie. Soon their baby daughter, Rose, is born, and the young family must face the hardships and triumphs encountered by so many American pioneers.
And so Laura Ingalls Wilder's adventure as a little pioneer girl ends, and her new life as a pioneer wife and mother begins. The nine Little House books have been cherished by generations of readers as both a unique glimpse into America's frontier past and a heartwarming, unforgettable story.

Julie Carter thinks this book is Excellent.
This book is not polished and edited the same way as the other Wilder books, but the rawness makes the story even more compelling. There is a lot of anger in this book, justifiably so, and a lot of despair. Only read it after you've read the other Wilder books, and be prepared for the sense of loss you'll feel when you come to the end of the series.
