Little House series

The "Little House" series is a collection of autobiographical children's books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, detailing her childhood experiences on the American frontier in the late 19th century. The first book, Little House in the Big Woods, was published in 1932. The series, including Little House on the Prairie (1935), was adapted into a highly popular American television drama that aired from 1974 to 1983 on NBC. The show, loosely based on the books, focused on the Ingalls family's life in Walnut Grove, Minnesota, emphasizing themes of family values, empathy, and resilience. While the books are based on Wilder's actual life, the television series took creative liberties with storylines and characters for dramatic effect. A new adaptation of the series debuted in July 2026 on Netflix.123
