If you read "Nothing to See He...Attenborough?<br /><br />If you read "Nothing to See Here," a lovely book about children who burst into flames when they're upset, there is a great reference to Colly Parton.<br /><br />When people are picking a state hero for Tennessee, meaning politicians, the two children want it to be Dolly Parton. Yes.<br /><br />I have a lot of heroes from the Civil Rights Movement, Dolores Huerto, early union organizers. And I just read "One Life," by soccer star Megan Rapinoe. She, along with Serene Williams, Simone Biles, Billie Jean King, Flo Jo, Jesse Owens, Jackie Robinson, and more. I could gon on and on.<br /><br />I had to return "One Life," today to the library and miss Megan Rapinoe. May have to get a copy. She is really something, risking her soccer career to espouse principles.Kathy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18418720666849497808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-46778204369274648602021-08-21T00:18:59.226-07:002021-08-21T00:18:59.226-07:00I have three heroes: Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Sir Davi...I have three heroes: Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Sir David Attenborough,and Dolly Parton.

I've only read one book that had Patterson's name on it, and it was because the co-author asked me to read and review it. I told him (Marshall Karp) that normally I didn't touch James Patterson's books with a 10-ft barge pole, but that I would make an exception for him.<br /><br />So... we seem to be pretty much eye-to-eye regarding the Parton/Patterson collaboration.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-77506973107684866822021-08-20T13:09:12.409-07:002021-08-20T13:09:12.409-07:00It's unfortunate that we all can't receive...It's unfortunate that we all can't receive the rain we need when we need it-- and just in the amounts we need.

My second reaction (only a little less snarky) was, this may be good because Dolly is a much better storyteller than Patterson can ever hope to be.

My neck of the woods is still pretty dry, which is not typical for us. Some of our grass is crunchy. <br /><br />I can relate to the article about buying books like I'm immortal. I have slowed down my book buying and use the library a lot - but the library closed when the pandemic hit! Which caused my to begin buying more books again (sigh). It's a fun problem to have 🙂.<br /><br />Enjoy your visit to the zoo!<br />Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351923715238237269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-81804024193620744222021-08-20T04:39:28.843-07:002021-08-20T04:39:28.843-07:00There go my late night typos.
