| 9780064400039 | Farmer Boy (Little House) | Wilder, Laura Ingalls | While Laura Ingalls grows up in a little house on the western prairie, Almanzo Wilder is living on a big farm in New York State. Here Almanzo and his brother and sisters help with the summer planting and fall harvest. In winter there is wood to be chopped and great slabs of ice to be cut from the river and stored. Time for fun comes when the jolly tin peddler visits, or best of all, when the fair comes to town. This is Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved story of how her husband Almanzo grew up as a farmer boy far from the little house where Laura lived. Originally published in 1933, Farmer Boy is the second book in the Little House Series. | HarperCollins |

Beautiful and delicate watercolor illustrations showcase life-size feathers and compare them to everyday objects.
