An interesting literary analysis

Written by a professor of children's literature, "Laura Ingalls Wilder" offers a detailed analysis of Wilder's famed "Little House" series. Spaeth chooses to focus on literary techniques, and shows how Laura developed as a writer with the guidance of her daughter, acclaimed journalist Rose Wilder Lane. The author's choice to address the works thematically is significant, as it provides a sense of continuity - the combination of historical information and themes of family, westward migration, women's issues, and human development are sprinkled throughout the eight chapters. "Laura Ingalls Wilder" is suitable for students of children's literature, as well as Wilder fans, though it may seem a bit dry at times for general reading.
