Well, hello, Dolly

Carol Channing, one of America's most beloved and enduring theatrical legends, takes on her most challenging role yet: as the author of this funny, ribald, and moving memoir.

Known across the nation for her portrayal of the irresistible Dolly Levi, the title character of the Broadway musical phenomenon, Hello, Dolly , Carol Channing is perhaps the only living theatrical star whose name brings a smile to the face of people in virtually every city and town across America and Canada, to say nothing of London, Melbourne, and Sydney. Her performance as the droll and leggy Lorelei Lee in the Broadway version of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes made her a star and launched a career that has spanned over fifty years and has included a number of Broadway plays, many television appearances, and two movies, including Thoroughly Modern Millie, for which she was nominated for an Academy Award. Capping them all, of course, was her Tony award-winning signature performance as the irrepressible Dolly.

Conversational in style, and written entirely by Miss Channing, this star-studded chronicle gives you the feeling that you are sitting down with this fascinating woman and having her delight you with tales from her long and amazing life, both personal and professional. You'll be invited behind the scenes for stories featuring an all-star cast of celebrities such as Marilyn Monroe, Barbra Streisand, Ethel Merman, Mary Martin, Tallulah Bankhead, Gower Champion, Clint Eastwood, Julie Andrews, Marlene Dietrich, David Merrick, No l Coward, Al Pacino, and Yul Brynner. And you'll learn of the not-so-glamorous times, too, as Miss Channing reveals her theatrical triumphs, her heritage, and her winning battle with ovarian cancer. Through it all, Carol Channing -- the real star of this story -- demonstrates with wit and candor how she kept up her spirits and forged fearlessly ahead.

From the first page to its triumphant conclusion -- and including many never-before-seen photographs -- Just Lucky I Guess is perhaps Miss Carol Channing's most engaging performance yet.

Adorable book!
Format: Hardcover
Purchased this book as a Christmas gift for my husband’s little cousin, who is two years old. He adores Mickey and Minnie Mouse and his mother was the one who suggested it. I would recommend this book for all little readers.

Great Quality and a joy for Mickey lovers

Great quality and my 3 year old loved it. You press the relevant buttons as Mickey reads out the story. It's simple, cute and fun and encourages the kiddos to read along.

Great book, just wish it was more durable for toddlers
Format: Hardcover
My kiddo LOVES these Ready to Read books because she can "read" them herself and she likes the sound effects with each button. She easily figured out how they worked with me only showing her 2 pages. The pages are short so after only a day she's memorized what each page/button says, which will help with her reading skills. Love these! This Mickey book is a little boring compared to the Minnie book I also got her and she loses interest a little faster. Also, my kiddo is not quite 3, so I wish the books were a little more durable. The binding isn't very strong and the pages are very thin, so I've had to tape up multiple pages because she turned the pages a little too enthusiastically and they tore. I can already tell that unless I can convince her to be more gentle she'll probably end up ripping the main part of the book completely away from the cover within the next few weeks.
