A beautifully written memoir by the British Oscar-winning child star of the 1960s who starred in Pollyanna, The Parent Trap and Whistle Down the Wind
* THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER *
What happens when a girl tries to grow up in a world where everyone wants her to remain a child?
Hayley Mills's teenage decade in Hollywood produced some of the era's greatest family movies: classics like Pollyanna, The Parent Trap and In Search of the Castaways, and in Britain the acclaimed Whistle Down the Wind. Overnight, Hayley became a teen idol and a household name.
In Forever Young Hayley takes us back to a bygone era, charting a journey from her carefree childhood in post-war Britain, growing up in the shadow of her famous theatrical family, to being propelled into the Technicolor boomtown of 1960s Hollywood, where she was mentored to stardom by Walt Disney himself. With characteristic warmth, honesty and humour, Hayley finally shares her own coming-of-age story - a tale of incredible twists of fate and fortune.
