This first generation of kid stars appeared weekly in our living rooms when just three channels ruled the airwaves. Their fame was unprecedented, and their characters iconic. These early shows and the kids who took part in them are firmly embedded in our popular culture, cherished by millions who continue to celebrate them to this day.

When not on set, these kids knew all the best places to hang out! From drive-ins and ice cream joints to family recipes, we can delight in their memories of simpler times. These kid stars share their favorite recipes from their heyday and today, including a heaping helping of rare photos, and detailed biographies. We didn’t just watch these kids grow up; we grew up with them. They were our childhood friends, and this book is a reunion.
