Very Funny

This is one of my Mother's Day presents, my husband thought it was hilarious........

Anyone who knows me, knows I have ALWAYS wanted to be famous, I wanted to be an actress or a singer from a very early age, I have friends "in the business known as "show" but so far fame has evaded me and at the age of 41 I guess it will probably never come.
He said, "read the first page" and it did and this is what it says

"Little Miss Star lived in Twinkle Cottage.

Now.

I'll tell you a secret.

You promise not to tell anyone else.

Don't you?

All her life, Little Miss Star had dreamed of being famous.

She desperately wanted to be famous so that everyone would recognise her and ask her for her autograph, and she would have her photograph in all the papers.

But, she didn't know how."

Sad but true...ha ha! Alan knows me so well (I'll get my own back!)

Don't usually comment on your blog but just have to say that this is my daughter and my favourite Little Miss book. Best line is when she is on the plane and the stewardess says "where are you going" and she answers "I am going ... to be famous". 6 years on from first reading it we still laugh and if anyone asks us "where are you going" you can bet what the answer is. My DH one year bought me "the great jelly of London" for Mothers Day. Best kids book ever!
Thanks for the post it has brought back great memories!
