What Would Mary Ann Do?: A Guide to Life

So, what would Mary Ann do?

As the sweet, polite, and thoughtful Mary Ann Summers from Kansas in the hit series Gilliganâ€™s Island, Dawn Wells created an unforgettable and beloved character that still connects with people fifty years from the showâ€™s debut in 1964. As the â€œgood girlâ€ among the group of castaways on a tiny island, she was often positioned against the glamorous and exotic Ginger Grant, played by Tina Louise, prompting many to ask: Are you a Ginger or a Mary Ann?

This book not only helps readers answer that question for themselves but also sends the inspirational and heartwarming message that yes, good girls do finish first. Part self-help, part memoir, and part humorâ€”with a little classic TV nostalgia for good measureâ€”What Would Mary Ann Do? contains twelve chapters on everything from how Mary Ann would respond to changes in todayâ€™s culture to addressing issues confronting single women and mothers. Wells brings along her fellow characters from Gilliganâ€™s Island to illustrate certain principles, such as incorporating the miserly Thurston Howell III (Jim Backus) in a discussion on money. Anecdotal sidebars also describe fascinating facts and compelling memories from the show, as well as some trivia questions to challenge fans and followers. Illustrated with photographs from Wellsâ€™s private collection, this book provides inspiring lessons from TVâ€™s favorite good girl.
