Mansfield Attractions

In 1932, Laura Ingalls Wilder published the first of her "Little House" books, which described the pioneering of the Ingalls and Wilder families during the 1870's - 1890's. All of the nine manuscripts for these famous books were penned at Rocky Ridge Farm. Next to the historic Wilder home is the Laura Ingalls Wilder - Rose Wilder Lane Museum. The museum exhibits include artifacts spanning over a century of the lives of the pioneering history described in the "Little House" books.
