Farmer Boy

Little House, Book 2

By: Laura Ingalls Wilder

Narrated by: Cherry Jones

The second book in the treasured Little House series, Farmer Boy is Laura Ingalls Wilder’s beloved story of how her husband, Almanzo, grew up as a farmer boy far from the little house where Laura lived.

The nine Little House books have been cherished by generations of readers as both a unique glimpse into America’s frontier history and as heartwarming, unforgettable stories. The Little House series has captivated millions of readers with its depiction of life on the American frontier.

While Laura Ingalls grows up on the prairie, Almanzo Wilder is living on a big farm in New York State. Here Almanzo and his brother and sisters help with the summer planting and fall harvest. In winter there is wood to be chopped and great slabs of ice to be cut from the river and stored. Time for fun comes when the jolly tin peddler visits, or best of all, when the fair comes to town.

Almanzo wishes for just one thing—his very own horse—and he must prove that he is ready for such a big responsibility.

Great Story

Great Story
But it has nothing to do with the little house on the prairie. It should be a separate book

Farmer Boy

This is a perfect audiobook for a road trip. It can grab the attention of both adults and kids. Very descriptive with what they ate! Will make you hungry as you listen to the story, but also many good learning moments about children being hard workers and all members of a family working together.

Outstanding narration

Narrator is number one !! Perfect narration of a classic. Might be my
Favorite of the series.

I wish it had continued…

I want to know what happens after!! This book was SOOOOOOO good!! I loved it so much!

Fun to get another perspective.

We enjoyed listening to this after spending so much time with Mary, Laura and Carrie. The performance is an easy listen and we recommend it.
