Laura Elizabeth Ingalls was born in a log cabin seven miles north of Pepin, Wisconsin, on February 7, 1867. Her first book, Little House in the Big Woods is about her childhood years here in the Big Woods of Wisconsin. This book is full of the stories Pa told Laura when she was a little girl, as well as the daily and seasonal routines of her pioneer family.
She describes a butchering, smoking of venison, food preparation, the making of bullets, hunting, a sugaring-off and the making of maple sugar, and weaving hats of straw, activities that most children today are unfamiliar with. She writes of the Christmas where she got her beloved rag doll Charlotte, and of playing with cousins, and making molasses-on-snow candy. She also tells of going to town for the first time and picking up pebbles with her sister Mary along Lake Pepin.
