What's Going On Here?
There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

Let Down Your Braid!
In Leah Wilcox's Falling for Rapunzel, Rapunzel can't hear very well and when the prince asks her to let down her golden locks, she throws out dirty socks. It is a very funny picture book, especially now that kids are familiar with the Rapunzel story, thanks to Disney! Towering is another take on the Rapunzel story. It's for an older crowd and more gruesome than Disney, of course, by Alex Flinn, whom I love. If you like the rebooted fair tales, this one is for you.
