Laura Ingall’s original memoir Pioneer Girl has so many unintentionally funny moments that really should have been included in the Little House books.
Like, she’s invited to a party when she’s fifteen or sixteen and they spend the whole time giving each other electric shocks because the house the party is in has a telephone. Like that’s it, that’s what counts as party entertainment in De Smet.
It’s a comfort to know that sixteen year olds have always been absolute idiots.
