My kid and I loved listening to this. Hearing Cowell's positive passion was infectious. Learning about her childhood also added a other level of enjoyment (especially since my daughter is an avid bird watcher). I especially enjoyed how the interviewer's questions and how the author delved into different artistic medium. I worried my kid would be upset that the books are different from the movie (she wasn't). It was a relief to hear the author wasn't disappointed and expressed so well the need for elements to change according to the craft. I know we will both rewatch, relisten, and reread but with new perspectives. It will feel like experiencing the pieces in a slightly new way!
