HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO...
Laura Ingalls Wilder!The author/heroine of the Little House Books turns 150 years old.
She was born in the Big Woods of Wisconsin. Her first book, Little House In The Big Woods (published when she was 65) recounts her early girlhood.
It also sets the stage/tone for the rest of the series of eight Little House Books in which she describes being young with America & growing up on the expanding frontier.

Loved that one....
1867 - 1957
She was born about 1 1/2 years after the U.S. Civil War.
Man-made satellites were orbiting Earth the year she died.
It happened at least once in every episode.
