Dean Butler Reads "Farmer Boy" on Facebook - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

So I'm still watching Allison reading "Little House in the Big Woods" so I haven't started watching Dean's readings yet, but I didn't realize that the book "Farmer Boy" was about a young Almonzo Wilder. This should be awesome. You can go to Allison Arngrim's Facebook page for the videos. Hers are hilarious as well. She mentioned casually that other cast members were interested in reading so I'm curious to see if anyone else joins in.

How did you not know that? Little House was about a family with girls. No boys.

Whether or not it was your intention, your comment comes across as kind of rude. I have read "The Big Woods" and as someone who has been watching the show since it was in Prime Time back in the 70's I know very well that it was centered on a family with girls. I didn't actually understand the connection between the books and the show until much later and I haven't read all of the books. I don't remember having read this particular book, which is about young Almanzo Wilder. I thought that all of the books were centered around the Ingalls family and didn't realize that Laura Ingalls Wilder had written a book about Almanzo's childhood.

And that being said, I was merely posting this information in case anyone here has Facebook and wanted to watch him read the story on Allison's page.
