Summary of Melissa Gilbert's Prairie Tale
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 My mother was against me writing a book about myself. She had tried to talk me out of it, but now that the book was actually a thing, she had changed her mind. She gave me her blessing, but insisted that I burn the book after I was done with it. #2 I had always been Jewish, but when I asked my mother if I had ever had a conversion ceremony, she said she didn’t remember. I was not really Jewish, and it changed everything. #3 I am a twice-married, now-sober former child actor and mother of four. I acquired those hyphenates by living the way I wanted or needed to, and I made my share of mistakes. I am now happy and fat, and I play drums, surf, and meditate. #4 I was not always at peace. I was not always content to let life happen. I had issues, and they eventually caught up with me. I got to a point in my life where I needed to address them, and I began by asking myself who I was and what I wanted out of life.
