The Prairie Girl Stories is about my mother's life when she was a little girl who lived with her family on the unsettled Canadian prairie. Her name was Irene.Over one hundred years ago, Elna Irene Rosenberg was born in Seattle, Washington, and moved to the Saskatchewan prairie when she was only one year old, and her brother Roy was just an infant. Her brother Adolf joined their family on the prairie when Irene was four years old, and her sister, Violet, was born in Seattle after they left the prairie when Irene was nine years old. Growing up I loved to hear the stories that Grandma and my mom would tell. When I was a little girl the prairie stories were as much loved as my nursery rhymes and fairy tale books. In my mother's late years, she and I spent many enjoyable hours reliving those early years of her life. Her memories were still as vivid as if they had just happened. My mother and her family truly lived the pioneer life from 1911-1919 while homesteading on the vast Saskatchewan prairie in Canada. These are her stories?But the stories first have to begin earlier in the late 1800s when my grandmother Hilda, Irene's mother was a little girl just arriving from Sweden?The following stories and Swedish family history are a gift from Hilda, Irene and myself to you. Mom expressed that she would be deeply honored if I'd compile her stories into a little book to be passed down and remembered. Lovingly, I've chosen The Prairie Girl Stories as its title.

A masterpiece of frontier fiction; an autobiographical novel of growing up on a lonely prairie farm in 1880's South Dakota. "California has a good claim upon Eleanor Gates, author of 'The Biography of a Prairie Girl," and should be proud to put forth its claim since the book is an altogether notable contribution to the literature of the west. 'The Biography of a Prairie Girl" is aptly named. It tells of the life of a girl born and bred on a Dakota farm, and it tells it in a simple, unadorned way that makes it interesting. It is a book without a plot, without even the always-expected love story. It is just a series of pictures, showing the development of a guileless life in a part of the world new to civilization, and yet it has a charm that is indescribable. One follows, with absorbing interest, the trivial incidents that fill the days of the little prairie girl. One feels a keen delight over her triumph at the Christmas entertainment, listens intently to the story of her pet cowbird, of her tame badger, of her first day at school, and stands, fear-filled, with the anxious mother and brothers when death hovers over the little girl's cot. "The book is refreshingly free from the thread-bare tricks that so many authors rely upon for success. There is none of the strife to be original or smart and the temptation to be melodramatic has been resisted, although there are abundant opportunities for this in the prairie fire, the death in the blizzard, an Indian foray, a cattle stampede. The experiences are given in plain fashion and it is this simplicity and sincerity that gives the book its effectiveness. "To readers the world over the book must appeal, but it should have a particular interest to Californians for, as has been said, California has a claim upon the book, since California did much to make the writing of it possible." Leavenworth Macnar, "Sunset," "A Magazine of the Border," Vol. X, No. 1, November, 1902.

IT was always a puzzle to the little girl how the stork that brought her ever reached the lonely Dakota farm-house on a December afternoon without her being frozen; and it was another mystery, just as deep, how the strange bird, which her mother said was no larger than a blue crane, was able, on leaving, to carry her father away with him to some family, a long, long distance off, that needed a grown-up man as badly as her three big brothers needed a little sister.
