Product Description

From Booklist

Gr. 3^-6. Noted Wilder historian Anderson has compiled a scrapbook of photos, early writings, letters, and drawings saved by Wilder and now preserved in various private and public collections throughout the U.S. The mementos are arranged by decade and explained in captions and a succinct account of the author's long and eventful life. Many of the photos were previously published in pamphlets available at the homesites, but the use of high-quality paper and modern printing techniques enhances their clarity, especially for the oldest images. The later chapters also contain material from the HarperCollins archives, including advertising posters, publicity photos, and reproductions of some of the original Helen Sewell illustrations. Appended with a detailed chronology and illustration credits, this is a worthy companion to the Little House series that should be welcomed wherever the stories are popular. Adult fans will be interested, too. Kay Weisman

Book Description

Though best known as the author of the Little House books, Laura Ingalls Wilder led a full, rich life that spanned almost a century of American history. All through her life Laura saved mementos of her past, including early writings, letters, drawings, and photographs, which have been lovingly preserved in private and public collections across the country.

Now, for the first time ever, these photographs, writings, and memorabilia have been gathered together in one incredible volume by noted Little House historian William Anderson. Each gorgeous page of LAURA'S ALBUM is a doorway into the private world of Laura Ingalls Wilder, and offers a unique glimpse of what her life was like. Here is the fascinating true story of this remarkable pioneer woman's life as well as an unforgettable tale of our own American past.

3.0 out of 5 stars Has Photos of the Real Laura Ingalls Wilder and Her Family!, Jan 8 2004
This review is from: Laura's Album (Hardcover)
I have been a fan of Laura Ingalls Wilder for along time, I first became a fan through the TV show which first came on TV when I was about 8 or 9 years old and then I received a boxset for Christmas of The Little House on The Prairie book by the real Laura Ingalls Wilder and I found them facinating and a few years ago I came across this book and it was very nice to the momentos, etc, and to see what the real Laura looked like and also what the real, Caroline (Ma), Charles (Pa), Mary and Carrie, etc looked like and this book was interesting and I recommend it to fans of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her books!

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Laura's Album (Hardcover)
I realize of course there was text, written superbly by William Anderson. The treat here, though, is the color photographs of artifacts from the museums. For anyone disappointed in the poorly reproduced b&w photos from West from Home and On the Way Home, you are in for a treat.

But as a Laura-junkie, I'd shave a 1/2 a star off as I wanted more, more, more!

4.0 out of 5 stars Attractive layout full of interesting photos, info, Jun 15 2000
By 
This review is from: Laura's Album (Hardcover)
LAURA'S ALBUM includes photos of people, places, important items (such as Pa's fiddle), and many other interesting items (postcards, hand-written treasures, newspaper clipping, even a sample of Laura's needlework).

In addition to showing many of Laura's memories in photo-form, this book also give a basic history of her life by decade. It's a great supplement to her LITTLE HOUSE books, and is comprehensive enough to give a lot of extra information to those who are interested in Laura's "real life."
