Summary
* 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.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Hayley Mills never lets you down
Hayley Mills one if my childhood Idles, and this book is just WONDERFUL!
So so true to her career and life of her Actor Father and Writer Mother.
A very very easy listen and her voice has not changed over the years.
A must for anyone who grew up at that time as well as younger people who love a true life Memoir.
Thank you for bringing me this book.

Incredible honesty
A wonderfully told memoir, warts and all. Hayley manages to happily relate the good times without bitterness from the extraordinarily bad times. I really felt her emotions as she narrates the book. I enjoyed the pockets of humour as she is able to laugh at herself. I am sure several readers will relate to certain aspects of her family life. I wouldn’t say she is a Pollyanna but Hayley very wisely focuses on now.

Enthralling
I loved this insight into Hayley’s young life. Nicely read and fascinating to see that she perhaps didn’t have the young life that I had imagined she had. Funny, thoughtful and sad at times.
Loved it.

Wonderful
For those of us who grew up with Walt Disney and subsequently Hayley Mills, daughter to incredible parents, this book not only brings back many happy memories from the 60's, but also the incredible journey of such a talented child actress.

Beautifully written beautifully read
I had thought that Haley Mills had a charmed life. Here in her beautifully written and read autobiography we realise that her young life was not an easy path. She had many tough obstacles to overcome. I am full of admiration for her.
