"The 'Little House' books are stories of long ago. Today our way of
living and our schools are much different; so many things have made living and
learning easier. But the real things haven't changed. It is still best to be
honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with the
simple pleasures; and to be cheerful and have courage when things go
wrong."
