"Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents, grumbled Jo, lying on the rug"

<p>I know this is OT but when one of my Ss spent his Jr. year of H.S. in France his French sister was hooked on “Little House on the Prairie” and watched it every day after school. It was weird to see it when we visited. I really wanted to like the series on TV but, like Gone With the Wind, I had my own vision and the screen images conflicted with how I had pictured everything in my mind’s eye.</p>
