Lee Lee is a six-year-old girl who lives with her om, her ad and her little four-year-old sister, Danae. Lee Lee remembered from the previous summer that every summer, Mr. Warren drives through their neighborhood in a truck that pulls a traveling merry-go-round on the back of the truck that children can ride for a quarter. Danae wanted to ride on the horses too, but Lee Lee told her sister that she was not tall enough and old enough to ride by herself. Because she had to wait two more days for her special ride, Lee Lee would ask her Mom every morning if the day has come for her special ride yet.Lee Lee was very excited when the day finally came that Mr. Warren and the traveling merry-go-round would come to their neighborhood. All of the children screamed with joy when they saw the truck turn the corner onto their street and they lined up for their ride. Lee Lee selected a horse that had her favorite color on it. She smiled from ear to ear every time she saw her om and Danae and would wave to them. When the music stopped and it was time for Lee Lee to get off the horse, she pouted at first and wouldnt get off the horse. Then she looked out at all of her friends who were looking sad because they didnt think they would be able to get a chance to ride on the horses. But Lee Lee remembered the scripture that her om always taught her: Treat other people the way you want them to treat you. When she got off her horse, all of her friends screamed ay! This story was a lesson for Lee Lee to learn to treat others the way she wants them to treat her.

One of The New Yorker's favorite nonfiction book of 2019 | A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Named one of Vogue's "17 Books We Can't Wait to Read This Fall" "Compulsively readable . . . ravenously consuming . . . manna from heaven . . . If ever someone knew how to put a genuinely irresistible book together, it's Jacobs in Still Here." —Jeff Simon, The Buffalo News Still Here is the first full telling of Elaine Stritch’s life. Rollicking but intimate, it tracks one of Broadway’s great personalities from her upbringing in Detroit during the Great Depression to her fateful move to New York City, where she studied alongside Marlon Brando, Bea Arthur, and Harry Belafonte. We accompany Elaine through her jagged rise to fame, to Hollywood and London, and across her later years, when she enjoyed a stunning renaissance, punctuated by a turn on the popular television show 30 Rock. We explore the influential—and often fraught—collaborations she developed with Noël Coward, Tennessee Williams, and above all Stephen Sondheim, as well as her courageous yet flawed attempts to control a serious drinking problem. And we see the entertainer triumphing over personal turmoil with the development of her Tony Award–winning one-woman show, Elaine Stritch at Liberty, which established her as an emblem of spiky independence and Manhattan life for an entirely new generation of admirers. In Still Here, Alexandra Jacobs conveys the full force of Stritch’s sardonic wit and brassy charm while acknowledging her many dark complexities. Following years of meticulous research and interviews, this is a portrait of a powerful, vulnerable, honest, and humorous figure who continues to reverberate in the public consciousness.
