(4) 4-6 This book retells On the Banks of Plum Creek from Nellie Oleson's perspective. Readers get to know her a little bit before Laura Ingalls shows up partway through, giving stuck-up Nellie some depth and motivation for her actions. The writing pales in comparison to Wilder's, but Williams is creative in her weaving of this story with the original.
