520    "A beautiful tribute to Betty White, one of the most 
       beloved and treasured American icons. Betty White's award-
       winning career spanned seven decades. From the early days 
       of television on the game-show circuit to her 
       unforgettable roles on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The 
       Golden Girls, and Hot in Cleveland, she was the first lady
       of television. With her irreverent wit and comedic timing,
       she was a force of nature forever cherished by fans young 
       and old. In Betty White's Pearls of Wisdom readers will 
       find a more intimate look into Betty's life as told 
       through the eyes of Patty Sullivan, her lifelong friend 
       and adopted family member. "My remembrances are perhaps an
       echo of things already said, but I hope my stories hold up
       a mirror, another reflection of her essence and how she 
       affected my life so profoundly." Patty met Betty in the 
       late 1960s, and the Sullivans--Patty, her husband, Tom, 
       and their two children--enjoyed a rich relationship and 
       amazing closeness through Betty's final days. Through her 
       stories we see Betty's fun-loving banter over a game of 
       Scrabble, her wisdom imparted on a moonlit Christmas 
       sleigh ride, and her passionate advocacy for all members 
       of the animal kingdom. Betty's uncompromising values were 
       the authentic core of the life she lived and savored--
       tasting every minute along the way. Betty White's Pearls 
       of Wisdom gives you a glimpse into the personal 
       relationship with "her Sullivans," and the pearls of 
       wisdom she imparted that forever transformed their lives"-
