Beschreibung des Verlags
The sixth of the Little House books series.
Laura is 14 and it is winter in Dakota 1880-81. This book portrays the true story of severe blizzard times and the brave search for a cache of wheat to stop the townspeople from starving.
On the empty winter prairie, gray clouds to the northwest meant only one thing: a blizzard was seconds away. The first blizzard came in October. It snowed almost without stopping until April. The temperature dropped to forty below. Snow reached the roof-tops. And no trains could get through with food and coal. The townspeople began to starve. The Ingalls family barely lived through that winter. And Almanzo Wilder knew he would have to risk his life to save the town.
The novel was the runner up for the Newbery Medal in 1941.
