Meet Audrey Hepburn as you've never seen her before in this empowering children's book by her son and daughter-in-law, Sean and Karin Hepburn Ferrer! Audrey's 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. As she daydreams about who she will become when the war ends, her real-life story of fame, family, and charity work unfolds. Facing dire circumstances during Occupation, Audrey and her family often don't have enough to eat. Despite the challenges, Audrey never loses hope that, with spirit and determination, her dreams can still come true.
Little Audrey's Daydream tells the story of Audrey Hepburn's life from her own perspective as a child growing up in Belgium and Holland, and hints at her adult life as an actress, mother, and humanitarian. Following in the footsteps of her incredible humanitarian legacy, all of the author proceeds from the book will be donated to EURORDIS, the Voice of Rare Disease Patients in Europe. This is an essential addition to the library of all Audrey Hepburn fans and a beautiful introduction to the life of Audrey Hepburn for children.
