Little House in the Big Woods

Little House, Book 1

De: Laura Ingalls Wilder

Narrado por: Cherry Jones

The book that started it all! Little House in the Big Woods is the first book in Laura Ingalls Wilder's treasured Little House series, which is based on her life growing up as an American pioneer.

Told from four-year-old Laura's point-of-view, this story begins in 1871 in a little log cabin on the edge of the Big Woods of Wisconsin. Laura lives in the little house with her Pa, her Ma, her sisters Mary and Carrie, and their trusty dog, Jack. Pioneer life is sometimes hard for the family, since they must grow or catch all their own food as they get ready for the cold winter. But it is also exciting as Laura and her family celebrate Christmas with homemade toys and treats, do the spring planting, bring in the harvest, and make their first trip into town. And every night they are safe and warm in their little house, with the happy sound of Pa's fiddle sending Laura and her sisters off to sleep.

And so begins Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved story of a pioneer girl and her family. The nine Little House books have been cherished by generations of readers as both a unique glimpse into America's frontier history and a heartwarming, unforgettable story.

Great story; bad narrator; horrible fiddle playing.

It was a great story, but spoiled by the narrator's singing and the playing of Pa's fiddle. I especially disliked he way the narrator spoke Pa.

Little house in the big woods

This story is amazing i loved it I always like audible it is the best😁

Perfect for busy brains that need to relax so you can drift off to sleep!

Set your timer or you'll miss a lot of the stories. And if you set the speed to lowest, your breathing slows, muscles relax, and you're iin the woods with Laura!

Great story, wrong narrator

Great pioneer story, but wrong narrator! She speaks as though to 2-year olds; clearly, she finds the contents beneath her.

Classic wonderfully performed

I remember this book from my childhood and it does not disappoint when sharing it with my own children. The description of farming, playing with nuts and leaves, making clothes, killing and processing animals to make food are all very foreign to kids who just open the refrigerator and get food or turn on a video to play. It inspires them to go outside and entertain themselves with pretend games and hone their imaginations. The wholesome family dynamics of an intact family, mutual respect, prayers and lingering over dinners together are values that we would all benefit from reinstating to our busy lives. What a treat of a book. Can’t wait to listen to the next one.
