Horn Book (Thu Apr 01 00:00:00 CST 1999)

In Birthday, adapted from Farmer Boy, young Almanzo trains his calves with a new calf-yoke and sleds on his new hand-sled. Pa tells Laura and Mary about making maple syrup in Sugar Snow, adapted from Little House in the Big Woods. Sugar Snow offers more information about Laura's pioneering family, but both books are weak substitutes for the original tales, which readers will be better off waiting for. The softly colored illustrations add a saccharine element to the stories.

With this illustrated adaptation from the beloved Little House series, the youngest readers can share in the joy of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s beloved classics.

In Sugar Snow, Laura is delighted when a soft, thick snow falls in late spring in the Big Woods of Wisconsin. A late snow helps the trees make more sap for maple syrup, and maple syrup means sweet sugar cakes and sticky fingers for Laura!

Doris Ettlinger's full-color illustrations are based on Garth Williams’ classic artwork.
