Always be a first rate version of yourself...: Sally Warner

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.

Just Really, Really Good

I really love EllRay Jakes. I love the books and I love the kid. I just finished what is published so far in the series: Rocks the Holidays, Stands Tall and Recess King. Each one of these is a worthy addition to a very worthy series. You have to love this kid, you just do.

Another New Friend!

Here he is! EllRay Jakes! Wow! Yes! Another friend for Ty, Roscoe and Alvin and Billy Miller! I was at a book fair I saw EllRay Jakes is NOT a Chicken was there. Yes, I was sucked in by the super-cute cover. I didn't even know it was a series! After reading the first, I read the rest right away. I even ended up personally buying two of them. I listened to EllRay Jakes is a Rock Star, which was read in a great, great and funny way! Listen to a sample. I thought it was dead-on! The latest one, EllRay Jakes is Magic, I had to buy the ebook because I couldn't wait for the hardcopy! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
