ellemnope 's review for:

On the Banks of Plum Creek by Laura Ingalls Wilder
4.5
adventurous emotional hopeful informative inspiring lighthearted tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A good continuation of the series that finally catches up to where the TV show starts. Familiar characters started showing up in this one, which made it even more nostalgic and enjoyable for me.

A lot of foreshadowing with this one and a lot of harrowing situations that had me a bit on edge. The maturity level definitely increases in this book as things get a bit harder and more serious for the family. The Ingalls family continues to be a lot heartier than I think I could have been in these circumstances. Ma deserves a medal for all that she put up with.
