The life of Audrey Hepburn
Illustrated by Dominique Corbasson & Francois Avril
Goodreads Description:
Audrey Hepburn remains a beloved figure worldwide, but before she became a world-famous actress and humanitarian, she was a little girl with big dreams. Her extraordinary story unfolds during her childhood in Holland, where her happy life of ice skating and dancing changes with the harsh realities of World War II. She daydreams about who she will become when the war ends.
My Thoughts:
Like multitudes of cinephiles around the world, I am a huge fan of Audrey Hepburn. However, when I learned of her humanitarian efforts (years ago), I grew to admire and respect her even more. In this beautiful picture book penned by her son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer, we see the remarkable arc of the silver screen star - from Holland to Hollywood. The delicate illustrations by legendary artists, Dominique Corbasson & Francois Avril, seem to perfectly reflect the personality of Audrey Hepburn. I highly recommend Little Audrey's Daydream to readers, and art lovers, of all ages!
