Read all her books, many times. Now I read them to my granddaughters.

Can’t wait for this one to be published.

During an elementary age field trip to a meat market, ‘lil miss b blew up an intestine and made a balloon animal.

The Little House On The Prairie book series were good but except for perhaps the 1st year of the TV show, the TV show was horrible. I was nice family friendly entertainment perhaps, but not at all historically accurate and not even true to the books – the TV show took a lot of liberties from the original material and story. And it became way too preachy and way too sappy and sentimental and way too PC in the later seasons for my tastes.

Personally I would love to see a remake of the series, perhaps as a multi-part mini-series on something like the History Channel like they did with the Hatfields and McCoys and the Vikings series. It could be very well done if it depicted the true hardships of those settlers and did it in a non-biased and non-PC way and in an historically accurate way, perhaps incorporating the The Annotated Autobiography .
