The Duck Commander Family: How Faith, Family, and Ducks Built a Dynasty, by Willie Robertson, Korie Robertson

Read, reviewed, and released in March-April, 2015

I found this entertaining reading, as I am a fan of Duck Dynasty. This gives some behind-the-scenes background information about the family, particularly Willie and Korie, but includes Willie's parents Phil and Miss Kay, and Korie's parents, John and Chrys Howard. Each chapter begins with a verse of Scripture that illustrates this particular area of their lives, is named for a food dish that symbolizes different life stages for them, and ends with a recipe. The writing style is casual and confidential. I can almost hear Willie's voice as he sounds on the show.

Street Gang: The Complete History of Sesame Street, by Michael Davis

Read and reviewed in December, 2010. Sent to another Bookcrosser

It was quite fascinating to learn about the early life experiences of the key players, and how they met and joined forces to create one of the best-known and best-loved children's TV programs ever. I used to watch Sesame Street along with my sons in the late 70s to early 80s, and I'm still humming, "Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?"
