Season 5, Episode 15 “The Craftsman”
Laura’s candid sense of humor and a keen eye for observation shine in this wonderful collection of writings about the many places she called home. The book also describes other farm work duties and events, such as the birth of a calf; the availability of milk, butter and cheese; gardening; field work; hunting; gathering; and more. When Pa went into the woods to hunt, he usually came home with a deer and then smoked the meat for the coming winter. One day he noticed a bee tree and returned from hunting early to get the wash tub and milk pail to collect the honey. This reflects the time period in the 1800s during which farmers and many others were migrating westward into the American frontier. These original North American DVD sets included interviews with former cast members Alison Arngrim, Dabbs Greer and Dean Butler.

The townspeople of Walnut Grove are also a staple to the show, and thanks to them the show has some comedic episodes. Jackanory is a British television series intended to encourage children to read; it ran from 1965 to 1996, and was revived in 2006. From October 24 through October 28, 1966, five short episodes aired that were based on Little House in the Big Woods, with Red Shively as the storyteller. From October 21 through October 25, 1968, five more were released, this time based on Farmer Boy, with Richard Monette as the storyteller. Written by Laura Ingalls Wilder, the book is autobiographical, though some parts of the story were embellished or changed to appeal more to an audience, such as Laura's age.

David Friedman, 53, played Jason Carter, and stopped acting after childhood. When we were making it, all of us were in similar situation to what the family was in. We didn’t know what it was going to be like, we didn’t know how to do, we didn’t know each other, we were learning to bond … in the mud, in the snow. I always felt like the actual experience we were having helped to make the pilot feel genuine,” says Grassle, 82. As part of the 50th anniversary, there are dozens of events across the country, including Arngrim's one woman show, "Confessions of a Prairie Bitch."
