My mother raised us on the wonders of little Shirley Temple. We used to wait for A Little Princess to come on TV. Such a nice story written in a limited amount of words. Very well written, and brought back lots of memories. Love the image!

This is a beautiful story about your grandma. You really poured a lot of information into 100 words. I too enjoyed Shirley Temple movies when I was younger. I was raised in an entertainment family and spent my summers on the backlot of a studio. This brought back fond memories. I enjoyed the story. Thank you. Respectfully, -January L.

This is a cute, short short story. I love the picture of Shirley Temple. She is a hero of mine because she was a breast cancer survivor and worked so hard in politics. Thanks for sharing.

I love this piece! The narrative is simple, but in a familiar way. I feel like the the narrator may be a friend, and is very welcoming and engaging. It ended leaving me wanting to read more for sure. Great job love!!ð???

Shirley Temple and Mickey Rooney were my favourites back in the day! I liked this fiction story! Not all actresses and actors have good reputations. Ice job!

This is a wonderful 100 Word Dash writing contest entry. Those of us old enough remember Mickey Rooney and Shirley Temple and those days' stars. Very good contest entry. Good luck!

She was an amazing child star but life has its pitfalls when you are famous too. I enjoyed the connection you made with your Grandmother here by sharing the old movies, love Dolly x

I was like that as a lad. I always wanted to hang around the older folk. Since I was naturally quiet and wasn't a bother, they let me hang around with them. I got to see and hear things like this lucky lass did. Thanks for sharing this inspirational and well written work. Well done!
