Teaser Tuesday (April 8)

What is teaser tuesday?
It's a meme hosted by Should Be Reading and here are the rules: 

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!  


"When I was young," wrote Jim, "my ambition was to be one of the people who make a difference in this world. My hope still is to leave this world a little bit better for my being here." 
-Jim Henson: The Biography, Page 490, by Brian Jay Jones

I'm slowly working through this one (non-fiction takes me a lot longer to get through), and I'm enjoying it. The Muppets were a huge thing for me as a child, and something my entire family enjoy. Lots of giggles and warm memories come up for me when I think of Kermit and Miss Piggy.

That's some good advice to live by, and I can't wait to dig into this one!
