Laura Ingalls Wilder (Inventors and Creators)

By Kaye Patchett

At 65 years old, Laura Ingalls Wilder decided to write down the many stories of her pioneer childhood so that they would not be forgotten. In her eight-volume children's series, the Little House books, she detailed her family's travels in a covered wagon to Kansas, Minnesota, Iowa, South Dakota and Missouri. In the process, she became one of the world's best-loved children's authors. Her books have sold more than 60 million copies worldwide and have been translated into more than 40 languages.
