Knowledge is power. At the very least, the more I know, the more I know, and I really like knowing things. I'm full of and willing to share fun facts because I'm always looking up things I don't know, and there's a lot I don't know. So my Google search history varies wildly. Anyways, here are eleven fun facts I can think of off the top of my head.

Becoming by Michelle Obama
Michelle Obama is funny, complex, intelligent, thoughtful, realistic, loyal, hopefully, and more. It’s so easy to water down a person to the image presented by the media; more often than not, she was left to be the woman standing behind the man in the white house. Up until Becoming, I knew very little about her life outside of the basics.
Christmas in London by Anita Hughes

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever by Barbara Robinson
The Best Christmas Pageant Ever by Barbara Robinson has a soft spot in my heart because I played Imogene Herdman in the play version as a child, but this is the first time I read the book. I loved it!!! It's a great story for children, but it is still poignant and nuanced.
