![]() Think of 11-yr-old Laura Ingalls Wilder if she was still living in the Little House in the Big Woods and had brothers to pal around with. Which makes sense, as I read this over and over.Ĭaddie Woodlawn is a spunky pioneer girl living in the woods of Wisconsin. For all of my adult life, the phrase "If at first you don't fricasee, fry, fry a hen" has popped into my head whenever someone says "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." And I knew it was from some book I read as a kid, but I could NOT figure out which one! Well, it's totally from this. ![]() Warmed my heart!Īlso, this solved a semi-mystery for me. My 11-yr-old liked it so much, he said he'd like it if I read it out loud to everyone on vacation this summer. In fact, my 9-year-old promptly read the sequel, Magical Melons (recently retitled Caddie Woodlawn's Family). ![]() And my two oldest kids thoroughly enjoyed it too. This book is every bit as fun as I remembered it being! I chuckled aloud more than once. ![]()
