While the book is full of exciting escapades like a prairie fire and Caddie’s race to protect the Native Americans, one quiet scene stood out to me. Woodlawn – Caddie’s mother, a Bostonian lady who occasionally misses city life but loves her husband moreĪnnabelle Gray – the Woodlawns’ Bostonian cousin
Woodlawn – Caddie’s father, a hard-working Brit who loves America Hetty – one of Caddie’s sisters, a chatterbox reporter Warren – Caddie’s younger brother, a jolly soul Tom – Caddie’s older brother, a kind heart But, of course, you could check out both versions for yourself!Ĭaddie – A red-headed explorer who loves spending time with her brothers and learns many lessons. Overall, I have to say that although the film captured my imagination and I absolutely loved the costumes, the book is, by and large, better, both worldview-wise and for learning about life in 1860s Wisconsin. This story came to life for me via the television screen and later through the pages of the Newbery-Award-winning book by Carol Ryrie Brink. It’s the story of a redheaded, spirited girl growing up in 1860s Wisconsin where she and her family work and play together and learn what is important to them.
Lived by a grandmother and passed down over the years, it’s a story that beats with real life.
