Praise for Diana Serra Cary
"Cary's honest and well-told account of her unusually rich
life, as well as of Hollywood during its formative years, should
interest even those who have never heard of Baby Peggy."
- Publishers Weekly
"Two thumbs up for this engrossing, sometimes shocking memoir
of life as a child actor during the silent-movie era... Hollywood
memoirs just don't get any better than this!" - Kirkus
