Me and Palin are like that!

Cheryl Kirk wrote me . . "You're being paired with Sarah Palin or something close to it...." and forwarded me the following email from Amazon.  Apparently, my early years, growing up in Wasilla, have bonded me and Palin in ways we are only now starting to discover.

Product Description
Get involved in politics with your child in an absolutely fun way! Based on a political comment by one running for office (that your child has more than likely heard) Dyan sets out to both teach your child and amuse. The other words used in this book are some of the very same words taught in the Penny Mouse Early Reader Series, taken from and based upon the first primary reading list, and this book is not only fun, it is relevant and also purposeful . So smile and laugh and have some fun with this book, and please talk to your child and interact with your child, because this is all a part of the intended purpose of this book! A former K-12 teacher, published in 'The Kindergartner,' as well as in 'Instructor Magazine' and in 'Humpty Dumpty' children's magazine, and an award winning author, Penelope Dyan has once again put her expertise, love and knowledge of children to work; and this book is one story of one election you and your child do not want to miss!

  In honor of the comparison, here's an old YSL strip addressing why Palin and I don't look more alike.
