A Must For all Sound of Music Fans!5
As a huge Sound of Music fan, this book was definately a must for me. When I bought it from Amazon, I didnt really know what to expect from it, but I was more than happy, as the book contains all you need to know about how the film was made and all the people involved in the making of it.

The book is an extremely interesting read, it starts by explaining in brief the true story of the Sound of Music (the film is actually based on a real life story) and then goes on to explain how the story changed slightly to become one of the most popular musicals of all time.

It also explains how the cast were chosen and contains stories from the cast themselves and photographs on and off set. All the behind the scene stories are revealed - find out who fancied who and who fell in love on set! The book goes on to how the film was sold to the millions who still love it and appreciate it today.

A must for all Sound of Music fans, a fantastic book!!!
