Tell them like it is, Half-pint. In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE magazine, Melissa Gilbert (Laura Ingalls Wilder) explained why she and the cast of Little House on the Prairie have stopped supporting the 50th Anniversary fan events coordinated by Gravel Road Markets, LLC. 

Having attended the one in Farmington, Connecticut, I can't say this came as a surprise.
