Publisher Description
In 1946, Elizabeth Taylor -- then fourteen and a major star at MGM -- published a book about her pet chipmunk, Nibbles. With wit, charm, and remarkable skill, she related the adventures and mishaps of her high-spirited friend. She and Nibbles were virtually inseparable during the shooting of National Velvet and other films; in fact the chipmunk almost got to appear in Courage of Lassie -- but he was so well behaved that he didn't look real, and his scene was cut! Recounted here are such stories as the happiest birthday of her life, when she was given King Charles, the horse who was called The Pi in National Velvet, because only Elizabeth could ride him.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Young readers will welcome this fall batch of reissues. Written when she was just 14, Elizabeth Taylor's Nibbles and Me provides an innocent account of the child actress's experiences and her adventures with her pet chipmunk. The memoir first issued in 1946 contains Taylor's original b&w sketches as well as photographs of the two friends together. Chapter titles include "Concerning, Among Other Things, My Most Wonderful Birthday."
Customer Reviews
Great!
She shows so much joy for life and living things. She is able to capture your heart even at her young age.
Elizabeth
I haven't actually read this book but knowing Dame Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor it should be an amazing book. Elizabeth has an amazing look, an amazing voice, and who could forget those amazing eyes not to mention her good taste in friends (one in particular)-------> Michael Jackson. I Love Elizabeth so much and will read and love this book. RIP Nibbles
<3 always Michael Joseph Jackson, Lena Mary Calhoun Horne, and Dame Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor
