The book These Happy Golden Years by Laura Ingalls Wilder is a very good book, but only if you are into Historical Fiction. In this book Laura is going to go to “teacher’s examinations” hoping to get a good school to teach. She soon takes the examinations and thinks that they are very hard. In the mail the next day she gets her results and finds out that she got a good school! Laura soon stays with Mrs. Brewster’s because her school is so far away. Pa and Laura are soon on there way to Mrs. Brewster’s. The next day Laura is off to her first day at school teaching. When she gets there she finds out that she as 5 students some good, some bad. She gets through a whole month of teaching, and decides to use her money to get Mary, who is off at college home for the summer. When Laura and Mary come home, the Wilder family brings back a lot of their family traditions- like Pa playing the fiddle while he sings along, and all the girls and young women cleaning the house together. Once Laura was home she was playing with Almonzo a lot more often. I do not want to say anything else because that would give away part of the book, but this is for sure a book that I would recommend for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders!
