After seeing the recent movie adaptation a few weeks ago, I realized I probably haven't read this since I was a kid. Stayed up way too late last night getting into it.

This book is such a delight. Set in the depths of the Depression, this book has a touch of reality thrown in with the pure fantasy of becoming stars. The girls felt real to me, and I really devoured this one. Stayed up late several nights to finish it. One of these days, I'm just going to have to buy it.
