On the outside, she is everything people admire- smart, gorgeous, successful, a television icon- driving 100mph with a martini in one hand and a smile on her face. However, underneath her rough exterior, she's a very lonely, confused, distant woman who doesn't believe in love, in thinking about "feelings", or being tied down to any one person. A true tumbleweed who doesn't realize she wants to establish roots.

This book of nursery rhymes and animal characters is a great introduction to rhyming, sing-song language, and some favorite nursery rhymes. Of course, they're crushed when Dena calls later to cancel with a lie about flying to Russia. Unfortunately, Dena's gotten used to lying about her personal life. It seems life at the top isn't as fulfilling as she thought it would be. Though she hosts the highest-rated morning show on TV, she has no close friends, she's careening toward alcoholism, and she's downright unhappy. In the presence of Fannie Flagg, we know what this girl needs is a big dose of small-town America. Fannie Flagg is the most shamelessly sentimental writer in America.

Dena wants to behave decently, but that's not easy in an industry that lives and dies by the rating numbers. She clawed her way to the top by believing in herself, but now that she's made it, she's not entirely sure who she is.
