The long winter

This is the 6th book of the series and the last book I have. This is a lovely book that gives you chills about freezing winters and warm thoughts about a family supporting each other.

Description

On the empty winter prairie, gray clouds to the northwest meant only one thing: a blizzard was seconds away. The first blizzard came in October. It snowed almost without stopping until April. The temperature dropped to forty below. Snow reached the rooftops. And no trains could get through with food and coal. The townspeople began to starve. The Ingalls family barely lived through that winter. And Almanzo Wilder knew he would have to risk his life to save the town.

Description

At first, the Ingalls lived in a sod house in Minnesota. The Pa built a clean new house beside Plum Creek, buying the materials for it on credit, intending de pay for them with the fall wheat harvest. But just before the harvest, a strange glittering cloud suddenly blocked out the sun. Plunk! Something dropped on Laura's head, and fell to the ground. It was the biggest grasshopper she had ever seen. Millions of them descended over the country-side, and then there was no crop.
