The Little Guide to Betty White: Everybody needs a passion

by Oh

The Little Guide to Betty White captures the humor, tenacity, optimism and candor of this beloved comedian, actress, and legend in her own time. In honor of Betty's illustrious 80-plus-year career-from radio and TV variety shows to game shows and sitcoms, from Sue Ann Nivens in The Mary Tyler Moore Show to Rose Nylund in The Golden Girls -this celebration of her famous catchphrases, quips, one-liners, and words of wisdom delivers her own brand of quick-fired laughs to her millions of fans. One of the hardest-working actresses of all time and a tiny powerhouse of talent, Betty's gained a multigenerational fan base who are drawn to her comedic talent and plucky positivity-characteristics that have seen her make the most of her exceptional life and career while remaining authentic, humble, and down to earth. As she approaches her 100th birthday in January 2022, Betty continues to trailblaze as an entertainer and amuse ever-new audiences.

Excellent collection of quotes, quips, and quirky bits of wisdom from everyone's favorite woman in television. She will be fondly remembered and I'm glad that I have this adorable little book of her words in my library.

it's a nice collection of quotes and Betty White is just incomparable but I simply liked the book, nothing more, nothing less. I did put holds on her various books with my library because I think reading something she wrote herself will be a treat.

Full of great quotes from Betty, as well as some of the characters she played. The introduction gives a thoughtful tribute to her success. This is followed by six categories of quotes to help highlight the scope of the woman Betty White was and the legend she left behind.
