''Laura, the Prairie Girl'' (草原の少女ローラ, Sōgen no Shōjo Rōra) is a 1975 Japanese anime series produced by Creator/NipponAnimation. It based on the novels ''Little House in the Big Woods'' (1932) and ''Literature/LittleHouseOnThePrairie'' (1935) by Laura Ingalls Wilder. The anime was directed by Seiji Endō and Mitsuo Ezaki, with Masao Maruyama serving as the writer. Syndication started from October 7, 1975 to March 30, 1976 on TBS-affiliated stations. A total of 26 episodes were produced, each around thirty minutes.
Six-year-old Laura Ingalls lives with her two sisters, Mary and Carrie, and mom and dad in the prairie of North America, specifically Wisconsin. They have lived there ever since her father built a wooden home on Osage Indian-owned territory, like many other colonizers. However, life on the prairie isn't as glamorous as it seems. Harsh winters, illnesses, wild animals and many other dangers are present. Nevertheless, with ThePowerOfLove, the Ingalls overcome it all, while building a warm and loving home.
The series is notable for adapting the first book in the series, ''Little House in the Big Woods'', instead of going straight for the most well-known title. Hence Laura being younger than most other incarnations of the character.
