Actress Melissa Gilbert&’s personal recollections and memorabilia, including behind-the-scenes stories, anecdotes, and more than 75 treasured scrapbook images, accompany the recipes. With answers to the most-asked questions from fans—on topics such as the biggest bloopers, on-set romances, and what Michael Landon was really like—My Prairie Cookbook is a cherished memento for fans of Little House and Laura Ingalls Wilder, as well as anyone who loves hearty, simple home cooking. &“Melissa&’s writing is so warm and personal that it makes me feel like I&’m being wrapped in a big, warm blanket, and the recipes are approachable and delicious.&” —Jennifer Garner
