First there was Little House, then there was Little Farm. Laura Ingalls Wilder's saga continues into the twentieth century with The Little Farm in the Big Valley: a story for baby boomers and other generations as well! GO into the mind of the child in this childhood memoir. SEE the "play" and the "work" among three generations in the rural heartland of America. GO along with the boys on their country adventures. SEE how things unfold as their family grows. Here is a memoir of a childhood like many others and, still, unique in its setting. With the disappearance of small farms, the generations' way of life disappears as well. It is only to be recalled by the written word and forms of media. Such is the purpose of the author, Eric Weidler, who thoroughly relates his early years on that "little farm."

A hilarious memoir about a newly single mother who makes a seemingly impossible resolution: to stay in her century old-farmhouse and continue raising her three boys on well-water, chopping wood, and dirt. “Glints with Link's raw, willful energy.... Possesses that rare, elusive, but much sought-after feeling of authenticity." (The New York Times Book Review) When Mardi Jo Link finds herself newly single after nineteen years of marriage, she decidesto stay in her old farmhouse with her three boys. Armed with an unflagging sense of humor and a relentless optimism that would put Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm to shame, Link and her resolute accomplices struggle through one long, hard year of blizzards, foxes, bargain cooking, rampaging poultry, a zucchini-growing contest, and other challenges.
