Help! Mom! Hollywood's In My Hamper!

by Katharine Debrecht, illustrated by Jim Hummel

A Book Review for Active Christian Media.

When I was young I read MAD Magazine almost religiously. I enjoyed it's never subtle sense of humor and the fun it always poked at celebrities. If you ever wanted to know what would happen when MAD magazine meets Rush Limbaugh--this book is for you! "Help! Mom! Hollywood's In My Hamper!" is a clever book about how Hollywood tries to sell itself to the public. In it, two young girls appear to have a magic wardrobe--not the Narnia kind--out of which come Brittney Spears, Madonna, and Barbara Streisand...among others and under assumed names. The tale unfolds with the girls eventually looking ridiculous in their trendy Haughtywood gear.

For a fun conservative romp through pop culture with a good message (and some great caricatures of Hollyweird's biggest mouths), I recommend "Help! Mom! Hollywood's In My Hamper"!
