Williams imagines a new chapter in the life of the Wilder clan in her sequel to Farmer Boy. Almanzo and his family leave New York State for two years in Spring Valley, Minnesota. The readable story may seem familiar to fans of the series, but Almanzo continues to be an adventurous, horse-loving boy and time and place are vividly re-created.
