This Is The Book........

........ I bought for $3.

I bought it because it's about a little girl who auditions for the Sound of Music, and it reminded me of myself, with one exception she gets the part, I didn't.

When I was 11 I went for an audition for the Sound of Music in London. My sister spent ages teaching me the song, Doh a Deer, she could play the piano and read music, I couldn't.

Anyway, we went along to the audition, I got up on stage, and couldn't sing a note.
I'd never been on stage, and I was over-whelmed. Funny thing is I went to a ballet school 2 years later. For somebody who was very shy, a strange choice for a profession.
