("Please, Mama, just one more chapter!" their nightly plea.) Since my daughters are six years apart, I had the joy of reading through the entire series twice. As a teacher, the Laura books became our after-lunch-reading. It provided lots of opportunity to familiarize these 7 and 8 year olds with the life of that time. Now I have three grandaughters who are as fascinated by Laura as their mothers' were 30 years ago. For her birthday, Victoria (14) has requested that I complete her collection to include the Ozark years. It was while searching for a source that I ran across your web site. My husband and I have taken a special trip with each of our grandchildren. I'm thinking a trip to all the Laura sites might be the perfect destination for some little girls.
