Comedy icon and America’s Sweetheart Betty White, 88, has inked a two-book deal with literary giant G.P. Putnam’s Sons.

Her first tome — called Listen Up — is set for release next year! In a statement Wednesday, the publisher explained that Betty’s first book will include what White has learned over “her incredibly varied, decades-long career in Hollywood.” Subjects will include life, love, sex and celebrity. It will be published in the Spring of 2011.

Betty’s second book, titled The Zoo and I: Betty and Her Friends, is slated for a 2012 release. That book will be filled with stories and photographs capturing the daily life of her animal friends at the zoo. The devoted animal lover is a longtime member of the board of the Los Angeles Zoo and has been a passionate supporter of animal health and welfare her entire life.

White is best known for her work on sitcoms such as Mama’s Family and The Golden Girls. In May, she became the oldest person to host Saturday Night Live. She’s currently starring in the new TV Land original sitcom Hot in Cleveland.
