The Crowning Touch is probably the most helpful guide available on preparing for pageant competition. Contestants can learn to field interview questions with finesse, open their talent with thunder,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a super book for anyone just starting out in pageants. This book has the basics of how to get started and lots of great tips. The best part is there are several pages of sample interview questions to practice with. I loved this book very easy to read.
Very Helpful!

Although this book seemed to steal a bit of material from others--like anecdotes from another pageant book I know--it was EXTREMELY detailed and helpful in getting prepared and realizing that IMAGE IS EVERYTHING in a pageant. Honestly, I can't see how I competed without buying this book first. This book practically gives the formula for success, even how to stand and walk in swimsuit! I can't wait for my next competition!
One of my favorites!

Anna Stanley's insight as a contestant, judge, and director makes her book an outstanding guide for contestants. Her coverage on each phase of competition has thoroughly prepared me for my state and national crown. The appendix of resources serves as an effective aid for contestants with their pre-pageant packing and research. "The Crowning Touch" is a valuable reference source for all pageant affiliates and would be a wonderful edition to your library.

I only wish I had read this book before I went to the pageant. It is one to swear by! The author gives outstanding advise on how to tackle your platform, how to stun your audience in talent, and how to charm the judges in evening gown. The author get's deep down to every detail, inlcuding your stockings!! The author also has wonderful quick research appendix's in the back of the book just in case you need a quick refresher course. I know because of this book I'll definitely win next year, and The Crowning Touch gave me the confidence to do it!
