Farmer Boy by Laura Ingalls Wilder 357 pages
Farmer Boy is the second book in the Little House series. It is about Laura's future husband, Almanzo, growing up on his families farm in upstate New York.
I think this may be my favorite of the series. Almanzo's dad is someone I would have loved to meet. A part in the book that stood out to me particularly is when his dad was giving him a lesson on money and all the hard work that goes into earning it. That chapter should be read out loud in every elementary school. It is definitely one I will be discussing with my daughters when they are old enough.
