Do they materialize overnight like a lucky silver dollar from the Tooth Fairy? And if they do come to fruition quickly, when does elation turn to indignation. And why?</p><p>The country was mired in the throes of the Great Depression, and thousands of parents headed to Hollywood thinking their kid was one-in-a-million. Thinking a better life would be possible if they could just get their son or daughter to join a gang. Not just any gangthe <em>Our</em> <em>Gang</em>, the most-famous child film series of the day, perhaps of all time. While thousands tried out, few were Gang material. Carl Switzer was.</p><p>Like his contemporaries, Spanky, Buckwheat, Porky, Butch, The Woim, Waldo, and others, his on-screen nickname, Alfalfa, has become part of pop-culture lexicon for nearly a century. As has his famous cowlick and on-screen courtship of his gal pal, Darla.</p><p>After the Gang, his career was over. He disappeared. At least thats what many would have you believe. The truth is he had a more-successful film and TV career than most of the other kids in the series even before <em>Our</em> <em>Gang</em>s rebirth as <em>The Little Rascals</em> in the 1950s. He even had a role in one of the most popular films of all time, <em>Its a Wonderful Life</em>.</p><p>But it wasnt always a wonderful life for the kid from Paris.</p><p>For the first time, Carl Switzers true story comes to life through extensive research and interviews conducted with people who knew him personally. With never-before-revealed information about his life and his untimely demise, this is the biography of Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer that generations of <em>Little</em> <em>Rascals</em> fans have been waiting for. This is the tale of the rascal you knew and the character you never knew.</p><p><em>James Tehrani is an award-winning writer and editor based in the Chicago area. He has won more than a dozen awards for his work, including several Headline Writer of the Year awards. This is Tehranis first book.</em></p>...7028093Alfalfa - The Rascal You Knew, the Character You Never Knew204204https://www.gandhi.com.mx/alfalfa---the-rascal-you-knew--the-character-you-never-knew-9798230594642/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6986947/image.jpg?v=638778434449170000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2025Inglés
