Pioneer Days: The Works of Laura Ingalls Wilder

[koshergrit]

Just enrolled in the class! Wonder if it should be its own thread?

Queena, A Wilder Rose should be available at your local library, or you can get it through Interlibrary Loan. I read it this summer and highly recommend it.

I just enrolled! FUN!!!

ETA: I just fell down a internet rabbit hole of free online uni courses. Oh my gosh, there are so many amazing FREE courses, it is kind of breathtaking! I want to take so many! I've put any more formal schooling on hold for now, and this looks like it is going to be awesome. OT- sorry. See you guys on the 22nd

I'm more excited for this than a Black woman of 39 should be. I need can't wait! I hope there's a Kindle version. Then again, the hard copy will be wonderful.

No worries, queena! I'm right there with you (also 39, soon to be 40)! The book can be preordered here.

I wonder if Dwan knows about this. I would love to hear her response!

She's the person I heard it from- it was the SQUEEEEEE!!!!! heard 'round the world!

Aw man. I am finishing up some grad school classes so I cannot take this one. Someday I will have a life and will be able to do things for fun again. Le sigh.

Back to my public policy reading, sans prairies. :-(

I'm sorry you can't take the class, but this made me laugh because my best friend thinks I'm crazy to be doing this for fun when I'm still taking classes for my Master's and working full time.

I must concur with your friend. Gurl, you crazy!

I have school, work, and parenting, and I'm losing my mind.

I long for the day when all I have to do is go to work. It sounds so peaceful.

LIW groupies, there is a Facebook page called Remembering the REAL Laura Ingalls Wilder and a great website, Beyond Little House. Both of these go in depth about the Little House and the people/characters in it.

Enjoy!

Some how, I have a $50 gift card for Amazon.com. Guess what I'm purchasing with it?

I just put this on hold at the library. I think I need it for Christmas.
