Prairie Tale A Memoir

To fans of the hugely successful television series Little House on the Prairie. Melissa Gilbert grew up in a fantasy world with a larger-than-life father, friends and family she could count on, and plenty of animals to play with. Children across the country dreamed of the Ingalls idyllic life-and so did Melissa.

Melissa Gilbert starred on Little House on the Prairie for nearly ten years. She has also appeared on the stage and in numerous television movies, series, and feature films. She is currently standing board chair and national spokesperson for Children's Hospice and Palliative Care Coalition (www.childrenspice.org). She lives in Los Angeles with her family.
