Arroe Collins Like It's Live

An iconic and heartwarming television show, Little House on the Prairie-and its cast-remains beloved by millions. Dean Butler considers the role Almanzo to be one of the greatest gifts of his life, and now, he's ready to tell the story of his Prairie. Dean Butler invites readers on a heartwarming journey of entertainment, love, and life. Told with the characteristic candor and wholesome charm that reflects the beloved characters he's played, PRAIRIE MAN is sure to delight fans of Little House on the Prairie as the 50th anniversary approaches later this year. PRAIRIE MAN: My Little House Life & Beyond (Pub date: June 25, 2024; HC, $28.00) by Dean Butler shares the behind- the-scenes of Little House on the Prairie on a heartfelt journey of "good luck, good television, and the very good- if gloriously imperfect-people who made it so." Cast as Almanzo, Laura Ingalls' starring love interest, Butler captured the enduring affection of fans and co-stars alike. With a foreword from Melissa Gilbert (Laura) and Alison Arngrim (Nellie), this uplifting memoir follows Butler's journey from childhood to the Prairie and beyond. Cast at twenty-two years old, Butler had no idea of the lasting impact being cast in Little House on the Prairie would have on him. Having previously starred in Judy Blume's Forever with Stephanie Zimbalist, Butler was fresh- faced and naïve to Hollywood, eager to make his mark. He found his home in the Prairie and embraced his fellow cast members as family. Butler's passion for honest-to-goodness entertainment began in the Prairie and followed him throughout his rich career of acting, producing, and directing.
