  • "When Melissa Francis was eight years old, she won the role of a lifetime: playing Cassandra Cooper Ingalls, the little girl who was adopted by the Ingalls family, on the prime-time show Little House on the Prairie. Despite her age, shw was already a veteran actress, living a charmed life. But behind the scenes, her success was fueled by the pride, pressure, and sometimes grinding cruelty of her stage mother. This is the fascinating account of life as a child star in the 1980s and also a disquieting tale of a family under the care of a highly neurotic, dangerously competitive "tiger mother.""@en
  • "When Melissa Francis was nine years old, she won the role of Cassandra Cooper Ingalls on Little House on the Prairie. She and her older sister Tiffany were already veteran actresses, having starred in countless commercials and made-for-television movies. As Melissa's star rose, however, her sister's dimmed, and she became invisible to her mother, who was increasingly riveted to Melissa's success. It's a startling account of life in a dysfunctional family."@en
