A new teacher comes to Walnut Grove: the prim and proper Eliza Jane Wilder. Along with her comes her younger brother, Almanzo, a handsome farmer who catches Laura's eye at once.
Laura is smitten, but Almanzo sees her as just a girl. To make matters worse, Nellie is after him too. Laura's attempts to impress him, including a little sabotage in Nellie's kitchen, go hilariously wrong. The start of the Laura and Almanzo story.
