Summary: Great Read for TSOM Fans & "Behind the Scenes" Movie Buffs
Review: A must read for lovers of the movie "Sound of Music". A must read for movie buffs with an interest in the "behind the scenes" of movie making. The book is very positive and uplifting - a much different tone than some other "behind the scenes" books; the tone is consistent with the tone of the movie itself. The book is very well written and has a good flow to it. It is important to note that the book is also a good book for younger fans of the movie.The book is full of interesting material and anecdotes. It will enhance your viewing of the movie (can't wait for the DVD). It gives you things to look for in various scenes; for example, the ace bandage on Liesl's right ankle in her dance number with Rolf - read the book to find out why it's there. Another reviewer remarked unfavorably on fan stories found in the book. I saw them as a positive addition in that they show what an impact a movie can make on a viewer's life. In the case of this movie, it was for good. We have all read news stories of other movies where the impact was not good. BTW, I met Miss Carr at a book reading and signing in Sterling, VA. She is every bit as personable and attractive in person as she was as Liesl.

Summary: Great!!!
Review: As I am one of thousands of Sound of Music fans, I bought this book recently. I live in South Korea, and for me, it was a bit difficult and long-wait to get this book cause I had to use an international order. Anyway, I was really delighted when I opened the package and saw this book for the first time. I read the whole book immediately without any break. *^_^* Charmian wrote this book in easy English, so I could read it without a dictionary even though my first language isn't English. It tells the behind story of making Souhd of Music, and how Charmian get the role Liesl and so on. I strongly recommend this book to those who love the film "Sound of Music". It is really nice to read this book.

Summary: Terrific "Sound of Music" book
Review: Charmian Carr has written a lovely tribute to this movie, which is one of the great hits in the history of American film. It certainly has a special place in my life, as it has for almost 27 years. Ms. Carr recognizes the adoration people have for this film, and she writes about it accordingly. What I think is special about her and her authorship of this book, is that she APPRECIATES her fans, fans of the movie, and is quick to acknowledge this in the narrative. I admire this tremendously. So many actors that appear in such a celebrated film shun fans and devotees and regard them as no doubt obsessive and looney. Charmian does none of this. She continously credits viewers of "Music" with its success. This book is a leisurely read, easy to like, not too long and yet not too short. As a "Music" fan, I personally would have liked it longer, but nevertheless, it is a comprehensive account of one of the masterworks of film musicals. Thank you, Charmian Carr, for being one of "My Favorite Things" for 35 years!

Summary: Loved Every Second
Review: Charmian Carr is so eloquent and so well spoken, it is a joy to read what her recollections of making "The Sound of Music," amount to. Also, she relates much of her personal life, including sorrows and joys. She is a gifted writer and gives so much of herself to the reader, you feel as if you know her, which is a great joy to her readers and especially to her fans. This book is more than just a memoir of the movie, it is a close up look at what it was like to be a young woman and a young actress in the last of the "golden days of Hollywood." May Ms. Carr endure as long as the sun shines. Bravo!
