Laura Ingalls Wilder FAQs
Seeking Laura Letters
Laura Ingalls Wilder replied to almost every fan letter she received. While she carefully saved those fan letters, her responses have been scattered to the four winds. Some have safely ended up in museums, libraries, or archives, some have been destroyed. Saving Laura Letters is trying to get photocopies of the letters Laura wrote deposited in the Laura Ingalls Wilder Museum archive in Walnut Grove, Minnesota.
