E…in the photo, the book that says “Mary Jo”, the rest of it says “…IS THE BEST!” haha….Laura gave me LOTS of self confidence!!

I’m so glad you enjoyed today’s post!! Thank you to Kate and Caroline for digging into this 75 lb. book (close!) and offering some guidance! And of course thanks to Mary Jo for the great photos and memories. xo

I received Pioneer Girl as a gift as soon as it was released from someone who knew I was a huge fan of LIW…I must admit that I haven’t read it yet but am thinking after seeing Mary Jo ‘s photo that maybe I should just re-read the series instead 🙂 ! That photo is priceless.

While, MJ is definitely #winning at LIW, I too read and re-read those books and saved my one hour of TV for Monday nights at 7 lying in front of the TV for Laura’s next adventure. I shall dust off my copy of Pioneer Girl (currently on my coffee table) and get cracking!

I too love LIW and cherish the nights of reading it aloud to our girls. What great perspectives on the writing process for Rose and her mother!
