A GOOD BOOK

MAYBE YOU SHOULD JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER, BECAUSE THIS BOOK HAS A GREAT COVER AND ITS A GOOD BOOK. I WOULD HAVE READ IT EVEN IF I HADN'T HAD TO READ IT FOR A SCHOOL PAPER. I'M A FAN OF LUCILE BALL AND NOW I WATCH "I LOVE LUCY" AS MUCH AS I CAN, BECAUSE OF THIS BOOK.THANKS.

Short but Sweet!!

I joined the I Love Lucy Fan Club and this book was recommended. I liked how this book was short, and easy to read, but had a lot of good information about Lucys life. Her life wasn't always easy, but she made the best of it and really made a splash on television.I admire her a lot and I liked this book.

A fun book to read in the bathtub.

I liked this book because it was full of interesting facts about Lucy's life. I didn't know that much about her before I read the book, but when I did, I liked her a whole lot because she seemed like a real person.

This book describes all of Lucy's movies, life & shows!

I read this book in the Library, and it was wonderful! It told about all the shows she did, her movies, her husband, Desi, her children, Lucie and Desi Jr., and told about her life. It was a sensational book, and ment a lot to me. I love Lucille Ball! In Fact, If I could, I would make it be that ciggarettes weren't invented, because if they hadn't been, maybe she would still be alive!. This book is the basic "learn all in a few minutes" book! It's very short, and sweet!
