Thank you for visiting! Both of these books were a labor of love. To say that sharing these stories and interacting with audiences has been an incredible joy is an understatement.

Where Should I Order a Book?
If you order the physical book through Itasca, I as the author will receive a higher percentage (40-50% higher) of the sale price compared to online mega-retailers. Another request is to consider supporting one of the Ingalls-Wilder Home Sites by ordering from them (the Resources page lists the Home Sites.) Bookshop.org is another excellent option, and supports local book sellers. If you enjoy these books and would be willing to leave a review (a star-rating is sufficient!), please do so. Amazon and Goodreads reviews are an important component in a book’s visibility. Thank you for taking the time to submit a review.

Note: When subscribing to the blog, you will receive an email to confirm that it was you who submitted your email. It will then ask you to create a Wordpress account, and I am unable to turn off that "feature." This is only so that you can manage your preferences (frequency and type of email from the blog, etc.) and I will not use it in any other way and I have no access to your information. Without the account, it does not appear that you will receive notifications about new blog posts. However, you can check back to see the posts as well, rather than subscribing.
