Little Audrey's Day
Published by Princeton Architectural Press this children's book tell the story of one of most legendaries Hollywood's actresses: Audrey Hepburn, but...The story of this actress being told in a very delicate way, for being understood by children, at the end will be something else: the totality of her existence hasn't been after all fame and glory, received because she was immensely talented, but her own essence.
A beautiful, delicate, kind essence and a person who desired to helping other ones.
Little Audrey grew up during the last Second World War living with a constant fear, the one of meeting enemies and helping the Resistance as you will read.
Her dream, she was also an avid reader, the one of becoming a great dancer, although later she became one of the most successfull Hollywood's actresses.
Once mother, she decided of giving up with her acting for following her children, and children will return to be her totality when she will join an important international association for helping children and their existences in places much more poors than our ones and when there was war.
Audrey hated war with all herself, she remembered that sensation of suffocation and she decided for this reason, of giving, where possible, a different future to children who, like her, experienced the problems and horror of war.
Absolutely recommended, this children's book is extremely delicate, touching and will reach the chords of your children, but maybe of adult ones as well.
I thank NetGalley and Princeton Architectural Press for this ebook.
