Well-Researched and Most Interesting
Becoming Laura Ingalls Wilder is a wonderfully written, detailed account of the real-life, complex woman that scores of American children grew to love through Wilder's award-winning \"Little House\" series of books.

Fascinating, insightful.
Unlike many of the other reviewers of this book, I wasted no time looking for alleged flaws in this book.

The Best Book Ever

Reads like an academic book but fascinating
I would expect that the well known author Rose did help her mother with the editing of the Little House books.

disappointing, but if you love Laura - it's a must read
While I will never pass up any biography about LIW, I have to admit that this book is not too exciting.

Interesting, yet flawed biography
I enjoyed this, but like others, was aching to read more about Laura and Almanzo.

wonderful, in-depth look at my idol
This book contains almost TOO MUCH information about the famous Laura.
