With a stunning new cover look and classic inside illustrations from Garth Williams – now the inspiration for a brand new and much-anticipated Netflix show.
When a blizzard cuts the town of De Smet off from the railroad, the community is left for weeks without food or fuel deliveries, and the Ingalls family are forced to eke out the last of their supplies.
As the terrible winter drags on, things begin to look desperate, until Almanzo Wilder and his friend brave the icy storms in search of help from another settlement.
