Jean Kylie Me About All My name is Kylie Jean Carter I live in a big sunny yellow house on Peachtree Lane in Jacksonville Texas with Momma Daddy and my two brothers T J and Ugly Brother
T J is my older brother and Ugly Brother is well he’s really a dog Don’t you go telling him he is a dog Okay I mean it He thinks he is a real true person He is a black-and-white bulldog His front looks like his back all smashed in His face is all droopy like he’s sad but he’s not His two front teeth stick out and his tongue hangs down Now you know why his name is Ugly Brother Everyone I love to the moon and back lives in Jacksonville Nanny Pa Granny Pappy my aunts my uncles and my cousins all live here I’m extra lucky because I can see all of them any time I want to My momma says I’m pretty She says I have eyes as blue as the summer sky and a smile as sweet as an angel Momma says pretty is as pretty does That means being nice to the old folks taking care of little animals and respecting my momma and daddy But I’m pretty on the outside and on the inside My hair is long brown and curly I wear it in a ponytail sometimes but my absolute most favorite is when Momma pulls it back in a princess style on special days
I just gave you a little hint about my big dream Ever since I was a bitty baby I have wanted to be an honest-to-goodness beauty queen I even know the wave It’s side to side nice and slow with a dazzling smile I practice all the time because everybody knows beauty queens need to have a perfect wave I’m Kylie Jean and I’m going to be a beauty queen Just you wait and see
Picture a as Pretty One Chapter I sleepily roll over to the sound of my pillow crunching It’s the sound of paper Tucked under my pillow is an invitation to a special party I bounce out of bed My dog Ugly Brother follows me It’s Saturday and tonight Daddy and I are going to the opening of the Cooper County College yearly art exhibit Daddy got invited because he is writing a story about local artists for the paper Poor Momma she can’t go because she’s away at a quilting retreat all weekend Daddy says they open the exhibit with a fancy party Since Momma isn’t here he’d be honored to take his other favorite girl That’s me Ugly Brother wants to go too but he can’t I know he’s sad
