Currently Reading: Batman: Blind Justice, Ballet Shoes and Identity Crisis

What can I say, I'm a total bookaholic and I love to read. And right now I'm on a comic book kick and despite having plenty at home to read, the library has made it possible to read even more of them.
Which is why I love going to the library, I always find something interesting to read.

Fame, Fortune, and Fun!

When three orphans -- Pauline, Petrova, and Posy -- vow to make a name for themselves, they have no idea that it's going to be such hard work! With the help of a kindly benefactress, they launch themselves into the world of show business, complete with working papers, the glare of the footlights...practice, practice, practice.

Each girl quickly finds her own special talent. Pauline -- with a flair for the dramatic -- seems destined for the movies. Posy is a born dancer. Practical Petrova, however, discovers she'd rather pilot a plane than do a pirouette...
