If you were a pioneer on the prairie /by Anne Kamma ; illustrated by James Watling. - New York : Scholastic, (c)2003. - 64 pages : color illustrations, maps ; 19 x 23 cm.

This new addition to the popular question and answer history series invites readers to step back in time and see what it was like to grow up on the Great Plains more than 100 years ago. What kind of house would you live in? What kind of clothes would you wear? What would you do for fun? Would you go to school? The answers to these and 34 more questions give eight to ten year olds a vivid idea of a pioneer child's day to day life as well as the hardships the pioneering family faced as they attempted to settle in the vast and often forbidding prairie lands.
