Sorry Dr. Seuss....
I never really had children's books growing up. Secretly, I always wanted for my parents to tuck me into my fantasy of a barbie dream house bedroom and read me a Dr. Seuss book. With chocolate chip cookies and milk. It never really happened though. I shared a room with my older sister that had glow in the dark stars on the ceiling and listened to Art Laboe every Sunday night, and my mom never bought chocolate chip cookies because she thought they weren't healthy. Fact is, I had trouble reading in the fourth grade and my teacher told my mom I needed tutoring. Talk about EM-BA-RA-SSING. It was total fourth grade social suicide! Fr'reals. And to help out her reading deficiency child, she bought a book from Wal-Mart of the power puff girls and she asked me questions regarding the book. I passed my reading assignment the next day. Turns out the power puff girls really do have power. :) And that they could use some new outfits. No offense buttercup.
Last night I felt like an 8 year old that needed to be tucked in, not to be read a Dr. Seuss book, but a book called The Parts We Play. A Christian book aimed for children that teaches them that every Christian plays an important role in the body of Christ. And. It has some really cool pictures. So just give me my chocolate chips cookies with milk and some barbie pj's and I'm set. And maybe I'll even put my hair in pony tails. Just sayin. Forget green eggs and ham, I'm rollin with Gracie and sparky from under da hood. You just have to read it. It's by Michael Jr, an awesome Christian comedian I met at a Christmas dinner this past weekend held by my school at the California Grand hotel at Disneyland. He had the whole crowd crackin up. And. He was the first one that called me out on my not so normal Mexican name without making me get all crazy. That's rare. And to top it off, he gave me the book for free. And, he said my hair looked nice which means he's my new BFF. He just doesn't know it yet. Sorry Pam. So, if your 20 years old like me, and want to be tucked in by your parents one night like me, this book is for you.
