Beyond the Prairie: The True Story of Laura Ingalls Wilder

A reimagined slice of the Little House saga that draws on events from the series' final trio of volumes and The First Four Years. Laura lives on the prairie near De Smet, South Dakota, where she eventually meets the man who will become her husband, Almanzo Wilder. Life on the prairie remains unforgiving: a crop lost to hail, the death of their infant son, the burning of their house, and a severe diphtheria outbreak test the Wilders. Faced with these tragedies, they must make hard choices about how to move forward. Written by Anonymous
