Sean Hepburn Ferrer

It’s a wonderful book written with love, respect, and tenderness. There are many professional photos along with family ones. It is a book about Her and not only her. It’s also about wars, children dying of hunger, and our responsibility for all this. I recommend this book for everyone because her life is teaching us how to be loving, strong, and be able to feel compassion for people in needs.

The copy I read had, sadly, pages missing. This is a son talking about his famous mother's life, it isn't in depth but it reflects on her life and how she loved and was loved and how much she cared about children and her work with UNICEF. He caught me and made me feel glad to have spend some time with them both. Features a lot of pictures of the family.

There are a lot of photographs and they range from professional to personal, occasionally the text is interrupted a bit too much by photographs.

Audrey Hepburn as viewed through the loving eyes of her son, Sean Ferrer. While the book is full of pictures by many famous photographers, as well as family photos, the subject matter is her impact as a mother, friend and humanitarian. She is represented as the gentle loving woman she portrayed in many of her movies. Despite being world famous, she was without pride and counted the love of family, friends, and those in need as her true essence.

There are such beautiful full page photos in this book and some touching pieces. I'm tempted to take photos out of it and frame them but so far I haven't been able to bring myself to do it. Audrey Hepburn truly was a classic beauty inside and out and this book shows that. I think I'll always admire her.
