Laura Ingalls Wilder
Just saying her name, Laura Ingalls Wilder, transports me; not to childhood but into the thick immersion I experienced while reading her books. For the first time I felt the power of the imagined world, fantasy came to life. The trials of the girls I identified with and though the years between were many, time had nothing to do with it. I was given a new perspective, I was given the translation of life into books.
