The Little House on the Prairie Ingals family consisted of Charles, Caroline, Mary, Laura, Carrie and then Grace and the later adopted Albert, James and Cassandra. The family settles into a quaint small house on the banks of Plum Creek near the small town of Walnut Grove, Minnesota during the late 1800s.

Robert Alden, Mr. Hanson (of the Hanson lumber mill), and the well-to-do Olesons, owners of the local mercantile, and also the primary rivals of the Ingalls family (except the Oleson patriarch).

estupenda

Es una de las obras mas emblematicas de Michael Landon, para mi considerada una serie ejemplar,y moral ya que creci con ella y me ha servido para poder inculcar a mis hijos el valor fundamental de la familia, es por eso que siempre he querido tener una coleccion completa de esta fabulosa serie ojala lo pueda conseguir si ustedes me ayudan, por todo esto quiciera concluir agradesiendo a los protagonistas de la serie por haberlo hecho tan real y agradeserles tambien la educacion que con ella imparten y ojala algunos padres sepan cojer lo fundamental de esta serie que es la moral y el respeto que hoy en dia se esta perdiendo me despido muy atentamente
