Farmer Boy
''Farmer Boy'' is a children's historical novel written by Laura Ingalls Wilder and published in 1933. It was the second-published book in the Little House series but its story is not related to the first, which the story of the third novel directly continues. Thus the latter, ''Little House on the Prairie'', is sometimes called the second book in the series, or the second volume of "the Laura Years". ==Plot summary==
''Farmer Boy'' is based on the childhood of Laura's husband, Almanzo Wilder, who grew up in the 1860s near the town of Malone in upstate New York. The book covers more than one year in Almanzo's life, beginning just before his ninth birthday, and following at least two harvest cycles. It describes in detail the endless chores involved in running the Wilder family farm. Young as he is, Almanzo rises before 5 a.m. every day to milk several cows and feed stock. In the growing season, he plants and tends crops; in winter, he hauls logs, helps fill the ice house, trains a team of young oxen, and sometimes—when his father can spare him—goes to school. The novel includes stories of Almanzo's brother Royal and his sisters Eliza Jane and Alice.
