Customer Reviews

A pioneer love story

what is not to love about this story of a young couple starting out on their own? It is wonderful to enjoy the writing style of Rose Wilder after enjoying a lifetime of her mothers' stories.

Page turner

I finished this in several hours; couldn't put it down. Definitely worth the time.

Young Pioneers is a book you can not put down.

Young Pioneers is a good book if you love reading about how our country became seltled in the west by the young, brave people like Molly and David. Rose Wilder Lane is a great author just like her mother Laura Ingalls Wilder. If you enjoy Laura's books, you will enjoy Rose's also. Young Pioneers is a great story about how life was like in the 1800s. I really enjoyed this book.

I couldn't put it down.

I went into reading this book not sure what to expect. It was reflective of the Little House books, but I was instantly hooked by the suspense of the plot and the events. Although this was meant for children, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am a huge fan of all the Little House books, and this one just earned a spot on my bookshelf.

This book is great!

This is a really good book, and although it's similar to books written by Laura Ingells Wilder, it's not that similar. Even though the characters live in a house very much like the one described in 'On The Banks Of Plumb Creek,' it is most like 'The Long Winter.'Even though it is similar to these two books, it doesn't matter because except for a few minor things, it is completly different from the original Little House Books.

Very good

This book by Rose Wilder Lane is good, but too much like On the Banks of Plum Creek, by Laura Ingalls Wilder, Rose's mother. But it's a great book anyways! Buy Now!
