Little Town on the Prairie
With the blizzards over, De Smet fills up with spelling bees, a literary society, singing school and a minstrel show, while Laura takes town work sewing shirts by the day to keep her blind sister at college. A new teacher with a grudge lets the schoolroom come apart around her, and the older boys make sure of it. Fifteen and not yet old enough to hold a certificate, Laura studies for the examination that would pay Mary's way.
