Book Review 2

I read the "my fair lady". This book written by Alan Jay Lerner, and this story is very known everyone as a famous movie too. It is a wonderful story about the growing love between two very different people, and this story is full of enjoyable music and songs.
My fair lady is the story of Eliza Doolittle and Professor Higgins. Eliza is a young London woman with a very strong London accent, and Higgins is the man who decides to teach her to speak English without her accent. Eliza was then 18 or 20 years old, and she was not a very good-looking young woman. She was wearing a dirty little black hat, a not very clean white blouse, an old skirt and old shoes, and she had not washed her hair for several days and she clearly needed to visit dentist.
When Professor Higgins meets Eliza Doolittle he understands that it is her strong London accent that will always keep her in the street. Higgins decides to teach Eliza to speak English without her accent.
My fair lady is the famous film with the beautiful Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle. Audrey is the famous movie star in the world. I like her very much, and I like this story very much.

Book Review 1

I read about "Audrey Heaburn". You may know she.

Audrey Hepburn was a ballet dancer, but she never danced in a ballet. She made more money than any other movie actress, but she never studied acting. There was something deggerent about her. A friend of auther said "In some ways, Audrey Hepburn is the same as other young girls But in other ways, she is defferent from them all."
The world loved her. People love her now, years sfter she died. But she was not always happy. There was sad times when she was child. Some famouse people did not like her. Behind a lot of her great movies, there are some unhappy stories, She had meny plobrems, but she always showed a warm face to the world. And behind that face, there really was a nice warm person.
