Netflix confirmed this week that it's adapting one heck of a popular franchise – a series of books, in fact, that's sold millions upon millions of copies. While that might make you assume, in 2026, that it's some romantasy fare or BookTok craze that'll be coming to streaming, the truth is far more innocent.
This week we got a trailer for Little House on the Prairie, a classic of young American literature, and it looks like it'll unsurprisingly aim to preserve the innocent and simple tone and content of the source novels. Generations of Americans grew up with these books, so the show might have quite a lot to live up to when it arrives on 9 July.
