  • Alison Arngrim Confessions of a Prairie Bitch a delightful look at life on the set of Little House on the Prairie

    A delightful and informative read. Alisom Arngrim , aka , Nellie Oleson , has an excellent sense of humor as she recalls her life at home and on the set of Little House on the Prairie. I was a very big fan of the show back in the day , so having an autographed copy is a wonderful thing. The Book purchased was second hand , in good shape , and the price for the Book plus shipping was a fair price. Love it!

  • Very funny and touching

    Written like she is sitting across the table from you, Alison "disess" and holds very little back. From a very strange childhood....VERY strange...she grows up in the world of Hollywood. Her stories are fascinating and sometimes repelling. She is a brave person for sharing so much and in such a delightful way.
