| Patchwork: The Little House Life of Laura Ingalls Wilder |
Feb 7th 2010 at 01:30pm |
Michigan Theater |
|
Laura Ingalls Wilder's tales of outdoor adventure and pioneer spirit will inspire your children as they have millions of boys and girls for over 70 years. Born in 1867, Laura traveled across America's rolling plains in the back of a covered wagon. The Wilders created patchwork quilts that would later help inspire her time-honored books. Laura's quilts still exist today, and their patterns recall her beloved family, her strong and caring Pa, her heroic sister Mary, her warm-hearted Ma and their adventures as they crossed the wild and often perilous frontier. Join the Ingalls in this adventure as they face the hardships and the triumphs of the wondrous new land, with sometimes only their faith and the love of family to sustain them. Grades K - 5.
