Her first book， which brings together some 50 of these short pieces， rich in humor and folksy charm， should delight her listeners， as well as readers new to her storytelling. Many of the selections deal with White's mother， who has never seen a movie as good as Midnight Cowboy ， and other relatives and friends with similar eccentric wrinkles in their personalities. Other pieces are culled from the events of White's everyday life--gardening， her school's annual Christmas Party. First serial to Boston Globe Sunday Magazine and Miami Herald Sunday Magazine.

Review Bailey White's sketches evoke a sort of real-life Lake Wobegon.--The New York Times See all Editorial Reviews
