Little House on the Prairie is a 2005 American Western television miniseries directed by David L. Cunningham. It is a six-part adaptation of children's novels Little House in the Big Woods (1932) and Little House on the Prairie (1935) by Laura Ingalls Wilder. It was broadcast on ABC as part of The Wonderful World of Disney anthology series.
The miniseries was released on DVD on March 28, 2006.
An uncredited review in the Province stated that "This type of family drama is as quaint and rare now as a log cabin, but children will enjoy the miniseries a lot and parents will like watching it with them."[1] Allesandra Stanley of the New York Times thought that the miniseries was more faithful to Wilder's books than was the 1970s and 1980s TV series.[2]
