5.0 out of 5 stars A necesity for the beginner and veteran pageant competitor!, May 9, 1998

By A Customer

It is all too easy to jump into pageant competition without learning what it takes to prepare. Secrets of Interview, Swimsuit, Talent and Evening Gown portions of competition are beautifully highlighted in this book to help contestants avoid mistakes. The importance of paperwork is not ignored either. If you're thinking about competing, I would definitely recommend reading this book from cover to cover at least once! If you've competed many times, this book is just as wonderful as it may point out things you never thought of as well as confirming that you are doing something right. In my opinion, this book is a must for the pageant competitor's library.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get Out Your Highlighter, July 15, 2001

By	"corinnaprincess" (Lafayette, IN) - See all my reviews

I got this book from the library to give me more information about beauty pagents, and I couldn't put it down! I started marking pages of useful information, and then I had to get my own so I could make notes to myself. It is the most helpful book written so far, by a woman who used to be a Miss America judge and knows exactly what they are looking for, and how to get it.

This book is all the basic knowledge any girl/woman entering a pageant should know. It has helpful tips and smart advice, but don't expect some secret inside information. It's all about hard work and mental attitude to win a pageant. This book helps you remember that all the little steps you take to preparing yourself, leads to bigger changes.
