About this product

Product Information

Welcome to the World, Baby Girl!is the funny, serious, and compelling new novel by Fannie Flagg, author of the belovedFried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe(and prize-winning co-writer of the classic movie). Once again, Flagg's humor and respect and affection for her characters shine forth. Many inhabit small-town or suburban America. But this time, her heroine is urban: a brainy, beautiful, and ambitious rising star of 1970s television. Dena Nordstrom, pride of the network, is a woman whose future is full of promise, her present rich with complications, and her past marked by mystery. Among the colorful cast of characters are: Sookie, of Selma, Alabama, Dena's exuberant college roommate, who is everything that Dena is not; she is thrilled by Dena's success and will do everything short of signing autographs for her; Sookie's a mom, a wife, and a Kappa forever          Dena's cousins, the Warrens, and her aunt Elner, of Elmwood Springs, Missouri, endearing, loyal, talkative, ditsy, and, in their way, wise          Neighbor Dorothy, whose spirit hovers over them all through the radio show that she broadcast from her home in the 1940s          Sidney Capello, pioneer of modern sleaze journalism and privateer of privacy, and Ira Wallace, his partner in tabloid television          Several doctors, all of them taken with--and almost taken in by-Dena There are others, captivated by a woman who tries to go home again, not knowing where home or love lie.

Reviews
"Utterly irresistible." --Time "ENJOYABLE . . . [FLAGG] KEEPS IT SIMPLE, SHE KEEPS IT BRIGHT, SHE KEEPS IT MOVING RIGHT ALONG--AND, MOST OF ALL, SHE KEEPS IT BELOVED." --The New York Times Book Review "CAPTIVATING . . . . This is a comic novel to welcome home with open arms. . . . Wandering back and forth through forty years of history as though it were backyard gossip, Flagg tells the life story of Dena Nordstrom, America's most popular female newscaster. . . . You'd have to be a stone to read WELCOME TO THE WORLD, BABY GIRL! without laughing and crying." --The Christian Science Monitor "SATISFYING . . . [FLAGG'S] FAITH IN THE HEALING POWER OF SMALL TOWNS AND FAMILY ARE REFRESHING." --People "ENTERTAINING. . . Readers of Flagg's previous novels will . . . immediately feel right at home in Elmwood Springs. . . . Flagg gradually and deftly pieces together the puzzle of Dena's life. . . . It's Dena's search for that missing part of her psyche, the secret that apparently haunted her mother's life, that propels the plot. And its revelation is quite a surprise." --The Orlando Sentinel "RICH . . . INTRIGUING . . . A CAST AND A PLACE EVERY BIT AS MEMORABLE AND TOUCHING AS THOSE AT HER WHISTLE STOP CAFE . . . [FLAGG] WAS PUT ON THIS EARTH TO WRITE." --Southern Living

  • Welcome to the World, Baby Girl!

    The Fannie Flagg stories are as though the reader is experiencing the action with the novel characters. The attention to detail is remarkable. Anyone interested in people will enjoy all of Fannie Flagg's books.

  • I Laughed out loud. Excellent Book

    I really like her style of writing. I liked the story line in this book and all her other books. This book was very funny and serious at the same time. I just bought another Fannie Flagg Book "Standing in the Rainbow". It is a continuation of the "Welcome to the World" book. I also have read her first book Daisy Fay and the Miracle man! It was a hoot! I am planning to read all of her books. She is from the south and so am I, so I can relate. She writes of a time that was simpler and less complicated. I guess that's why I like her books so much.

  • Welcome to the World, Baby Girl

    My mother-in-law suggested that I read this book so I turned to EBAY. The book sat around the house for several months and one day thought it was time to delve in. And, delve in I did. What an absolute delight this book was. I had never read a Fannie Flagg book before but I am now hooked. In this crazy world of ours it is wonderful to read a book that brings you joy with every page. The characters are so true to life and you just wish there were more people like them gracing this planet of ours. Thank you Fannie Flagg for warming my heart!
