Description

Alison and Jody begin their NEW Judy-adjacent book, "One Crazy Summer," by Rita Williams-Garcia (2010). The gals take you on a wild ride through the turbulent year of 1968 and discuss the events, music, entertainment, and fashion that made it so memorable – from neo-Edwardian fashion, to the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., to Olivia Hussey's boobs, to the first Miss Black America pageant. Meanwhile, in the book, Delphine and her two younger sisters fly to Oakland to see their long-lost mother, Cecile. Delphine keeps her siblings in line, catches a glimpse of the Golden Gate Bridge, and has thousands of dollars burning a hole in her sock. To top it all off, there's a fabulous letter from Blume Head Amanda (who read Wifey in FOURTH GRADE) and a Law & Order / Doogie Howser mashup not to be missed.
