WIN WHY BECAUSE WE STILL LIKE YOU






Book Description: This book will tell the behind-the-scenes story of how The Mickey Mouse Club paved the way for all that came after, from its humble beginnings as a marketing ploy, through its short but mesmerizing run, to the numerous resurrections that made it one of television's first true cult hits--all through the recollections of those regular kids-turned-stars who made it a phenomenon. It will reveal, for the first time ever, the untold stories of Annette, Darlene, Cubby and Karen, Bobbie and the rest of the beloved cast.

I loved the original show. I grew up watching them and went to high school with Cubby. It would be great to read about them. I hope I get lucky.

I just taught my 4 yr. old granddaughter the Mickey Mouse Club song the other day. She loves to sing the part, "Why, because we love you." It's amazing how so many generations grew up loving Mickey. This book would certainly take me down memory lane.
