Madonna writes for Children, yo.

Everyone knows about Madonna; whether its from recognizing one of her hit songs such as "Like a Virgin" or "Holiday" or from her notable fashion, Madonna, a Michigan native, is the epitome of a pop star. She is what stars such as Britney Spears and Lady Gaga try to emulate and look up to. In addition to being a role model, she also starts and creates many trends such as Kaballah and has become, according to USA Today, the practice's most prominent advocate. Kabbalah users tie a bracelet around their wrists and knot it seven times; it symbolizes the type of Jewish movement and practice. She has wrapped bracelets around Guy Ritchie, Demi Moore, Britney Spears, and the Beckham's. Unlike other stars who write autobiographies about one night stands or rehab, Madonna decided to write a collection of successful Children's books called The English Roses Collection.


Everything Madonna has done in her career was spontaneous and unexpected and writing a collection of children's books was no exception to that. She got the idea from her Kabbalah teacher who thought it would be a good idea to write and share about her newfound religious wisdom. She started reading her rough drafts to her daughter, Lola, at night; if her daughter became restless and sleepy amidst her reading, she would alter the story and this process came to a conclusion a couple of years later. The books deal with envy and jealousy and how those feelings cause unnecessary negative suffering to happen in our lives. The books were released in 100 different languages around the world in September of 2003.

The book is centered around four girls, Charlotte, Grace, Amy and Nicole, and their lives in London. All of them become jealous of a girl named, Binah; they believe her life is perfect and they instantly become envious of it. However, they do not know that her life is far from it. She lives without a mother, lives in a small house, and cooks and cleans for a living. I respect Madonna for trying something new and she despite her controversial past, she is definitely somebody to look up to.
