Course detail: Laura Ingalls Wilder: From the Prairie to the Page
Load up the wagon - we're headed back in time to delve into the life and times of beloved children's author Laura Ingalls Wilder. From her birth in the Big Woods of Wisconsin to her brief time on the Kansas prairie and her family's travels in the West, Wilder's books have delighted children for generations and spawned televisions shows, musicals, merchandise and scholarly conferences. We'll unpack the complicated legacy of Wilder's works and how they can still help us have conversations about our nation's past.
