About this title

Review:

"The story centers on Rose's adventures and scrapes, and like its models, pays tribute to the strength and security of a close family." -- "Publishes Weekly""A fine continuation of the beloved chronicle, in similar attractive format (including quietly evocative soft-pencil illustrations of places and things). . . . Peaceful, wholesome fare." -- "The Kirkus Reviews" "Wilder fans will eagerly absorb this latest offering, and a few of the chapters will make terrific read-alouds."-- "ALA Booklist""A worthy continuation of [the Little House] series."-- "School Library Journal"

Synopsis:

Having left her parents' Missouri farm for good and trained to become a telegraph operator in Kansas City, teenage Rose moves out to San Francisco and joins the thousands of "bachelor girls" supporting themselves.
