Memoirs in Pamphlet Format
Does it count as a book if it’s a few sheets bound by two staples? I only ask because Miley Cyrus, of Hannah Montana fame, recently announced that she would be publishing her memoirs. At fifteen, she has accomplished more notoriety, fame and probably does more work than I’ll ever do in my life. But I wonder, what memoirs does any fifteen year old have? I recently asked if Disney would allow me to review them, they turned me down…so I’ve made up my own preview of Ms. Cyrus’ memoirs for you (this will probably spoil the plot, so if you plan on buying the book don’t read any further):
“It was dark and warm, I don’t remember much, then a bright light came and my dad started crying. I couldn’t talk so I cried, there was so much more room on the outside of the womb! I remember it was cold until they wrapped me in a blanket. Things are a little fuzzy after that, a lot of plush toys, I started to walk after I mastered crawling – of course. My favorite toy growing up (until last week) was a microphone, I used to sing a lot (my dad is a professional musician after all). I graduated from a toy microphone to a real one, then I got famous, some money and that’s all for now. My show is really clever I put on a wig when I want to be famous and then take it off when I go back to my ‘normal life.’ [Which coincidentally is what I do...only on Thursdays between 8am and 8:30am.] My parents are making me turn out the flashlight so I’ll have to finish this tomorrow. I’ve colored a picture for the illustrations, if you’ve enjoyed this then thank my tutor for my mad English skills!”-
