A fascinating biography about youngster Audrey growing up in Europe during WWII, the story follows Audrey's struggles even as she makes believe better days to come." <br> - AARP.com<br><br>"Based on Audrey Hepburn's childhood experiences in Holland during World War II, Little Audrey's Daydream introduces children to the actress's life..The book captures her determination, spirit and aims to inspire readers, young and old." <br> - SheReads<br><br>"Spanning 29 recent projects from around the world, this large-format edition showcases Kundig's signature attention to innovation, materiality, and craft." <br> - New York Journal of Books<br><br>"Written by Audrey Hepburn's children, the book tells the life story of Audrey Hepburn from her POV as a child. From birth to the Nazi Occupation, to her love of acting and dance, to becoming a humanitarian. It's a beautiful story that introduces some big concepts. Once again though, my daughter loves it. Fans of Audrey Hepburn will love it and I anticipate it'd make a great read for older preschool and young elementary school aged children as well." <br> - Confused Millennial<br><br>"Written by Audrey Hepburn's son and daughter-in-law, this personal biography introduces children to the late actress's extraordinary life from her own perspective.... It reads like a young girl's daydream but is a real story of hope, perseverance, fame and family. Dominique Corbasson and Francois Avril's illustrations are absolutely charming too, complementing the tale's optimistic tone. You'd be forgiven for keeping this book for yourself." <br> - CultureFly (UK)<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Sean Hepburn Ferrer was born in Bürgenstock, Lucerne, Switzerland on July 17, 1960 to Audrey Kathleen Hepburn-Ferrer and Melchor Gaston Ferrer.
