These Happy Golden Years

De: Laura Ingalls Wilder

Narrado por: Cherry Jones

The eighth book in Laura Ingalls Wilder's treasured Little House series, and the recipient of a Newbery Honor.

Fifteen-year-old Laura lives apart from her family for the first time, teaching school in a claim shanty twelve miles from home. She is very homesick, but she knows that her earnings can help pay for her sister Mary's tuition at the college for the blind. Only one thing gets her through the lonely weeks—every weekend, Almanzo Wilder arrives at the school to take Laura home for a visit. Friendship soon turns to love for Laura and Almanzo.

The nine Little House books are inspired by Laura's own childhood and have been cherished by generations of readers as both a unique glimpse into America's frontier history and as heartwarming, unforgettable stories.

Very enjoyable

I love the narrator for all of the Little house books. She is perfect

iconic

love cherry Jones and the finale of Laura's years with ma and pa. excellent rendition of an excellent book

Perfection!

I loved the story of this book and cherry jones voice narrating it is just perfect!!!

My only complaint was that it wasn’t longer

So much time was covered in this book. So many milestones reached. I feel this could have been made into a few books with more details, however for the most part it didn’t feel rushed. This one had me laughing, scared, happy, crying... name an emotion it was covered. I love each of these books so much, but this is one of my favorites.
As usual Cherry does well with the story, but could use have a little more difference between characters.
Over all I just wish it was longer!
