I hadn't a clue before and I haven't a clue now. Not as good as Melissa Gilbert's bio. Not as good as Alison Arngrid's, either. Is she hiding something? ( ) Another autobiography that could have used a lot more editing, some writing assitance, and a few more revisions. Hated - oh so strongly hated - the faux screenplay text portions of the book. Geez. Just tell your story. Don't make us parse through a fake screenplay to figure out what's going on. Hated the line by line re-enactments of individual Little House episodes. We know - we've watched them. We don't need you telling us all about them again. Spend more time on how you felt in those episodes, what challenges you faced in the acting, what about the episode touched you (or didn't), what you remember about it, what you learned, etc. There was a good book in here that just wasn't allowed to be free. In the end I just felt ambivalent about the entire book. I read this RIGHT after reading Alison Argrim's book and boy was I confused. Alison describes "Missy" as withdrawn, snooty, and going through so many childhood problems of her own that no one really knew her at all. So I was interested to see that MSA saw herself as a pretty outgoing, happy and adjusted young woman. Not saying she isn't but the books couldn't have been more opposite. Perhaps I would have liked this book more if I had read it first, but I went in expecting to find out why MSA was so withdrawn from the rest of the cast and was shocked to find out she really didnt view it that way at all I read this RIGHT after reading Alison Argrim's book and boy was I confused.

Could have been really good - instead, it just narrowly avoided being one of those books I could not finish. What it includes: tedious descriptions of Little House on the Prairie episodes that I've seen a million times and have memorized. I really didn't need her to recount them all for me. A little bit of dirt on her fellow cast members, mostly picking on Karen Grassle of all people. What it didn't include: Any information at all about her family or life outside the business. It was quite bizarre. After reading Alison Arngrim's memoir, I wonder now what kind of a family life she had. I would read Alison Arngrim's memoir instead of this one (I can't quite remember enough details about Melissa Gilbert's to compare but I'm sure it had to be better than this one as well). keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML: When other girls her age were experiencing their first crushes, Melissa Sue Anderson was receiving handwritten marriage proposals from fans as young, and younger, than she was. When other girls were dreaming of their first kiss, Melissa was struggling through hers in front of a camera. From age eleven in 1974 until she left the show in 1981, Melissa Anderson literally grew up before the viewers of Little House on the Prairie.
