1⭐️ This is a wordless picture book that is supposed to be a tribute to Audrey Hepburn. Let me tell you it NEEDS words. The illustrations are beautiful watercolors of her dresses and her life, but there is no flow to the story that this reader can find. I‘m not an Audrey historian, so besides a stream of black dresses and general knowledge of her film history, this story makes no sense. Please add words.

Lindy Now I‘m really curious. Must have a look at this. 👀 6y
WanderingBookaneer Did you read an ARC? I‘m reading it now and it has words. 6y
LibrarianRyan @WanderingBookaneer yes, a digital ARC. No words. At least they added some. I'll have to request it to see what they added. 6y
WanderingBookaneer It‘s not that good. 6y
