Publisher's summary

For over forty years, ventriloquist Shari Lewis and her sassy hand puppet Lamb Chop were the most beloved team in children's television. Together with her other puppets Charlie Horse and Hush Puppy, Shari raised three generations of kids and struggled to stay relevant in an industry that was constantly changing. In this audiobook, cowritten and recorded by Shari's daughter Mallory Lewis (who now performs with Lamb Chop) and producer-biographer Nat Segaloff, you'll hear how Shari survived using sheer will and talent, how she reinvented herself to meet new challenges, and the never-before-told story of the origin of Lamb Chop.

Shari's story is not only that of a versatile and talented entertainer. It's the personalized history of children's television and of a gifted woman's lifelong struggle to remain on top of a tough profession.

Mallory tells her mother's story with intimacy and honesty as Nat fills in the narrative. There's even a guest appearance by Lamb Chop.

Loved it!

Of course I am giving this book five stars. It’s about my most favorite person. The stories were great.
It was a little difficult to hear two different people telling the story and sometimes it sounded as if the speed had changed within the recording.

Love & Enjoyable book

For Someone who grew up with Lamb Chop Play-Along with Shari Lewis on PBS. This book brings back so many childhood memories watching the series when I was younger.
