Audrey Hepburn, An Elegant Spirit
I think this is a wonderful book to talk about because seeing as I am doing Audrey Hepburn as my research blog topic, I don't want to give a summary because I want it to be a surprise. But, what I can tell you, is that this book is a lot better than any of the other websites I've been to. All the other ones just list facts about Audrey that were important and assume what she was like. But, tying to what we did in library today, the one I am reading is by Audrey's son, so it really tells the key things. He really knows what she was like on a daily basis, and he knows some of her habits and what they would do on the weekend. I love learning about little things she did like wear ballet slippers in the morning and a bathrobe and worry more about getting her son's homework done than he did. I think Audrey Hepburn is a great role model and she is someone to look up to for your whole life. Whenever I read this I think, "Wow, she was a great mother," and, "I wish I were like Audrey Hepburn!" I definitely recommend this book if you are interested in her and I give it a 9.
