FANTASTIC

This is quite an amazing biography. It's just so wonderful, so informative and providing. There's tons of great quotes from Heath himself and you feel like you get to know him a little bit just from the read. I'd recommend this book to anyone. In complete honesty I opened it up, started reading it, and finished it in one night. It's just incredibly addicting. You'll love it. We miss you Heath. You were great man.

Great book!

This is the best and most informative book I have read on Heath Ledger. At first, I wasn't too thrilled with the title of the book, as I was concerned it was trying to characterize Heath as just another dark and disturbed 'movie star'. Instead, it showed him to be the sensative and incredible 'actor' that I believe him to have been. I ended up being extremely pleased with the content and great photos as well as the numerous quotes from Heath. It was very difficult to read the final chapter. What a shame there had to be an ending.

Heath Ledger

This book is a must have for any Heath Ledger fan! It begins with Heath's birth and home life in Perth, Australia, and leads up to his final two roles in Hollywood. Each chapter includes information from the family as well as many family photographs. While Heath and Michelle are protective of their little girl Matilda, Heath does talk some about becoming a parent and how Matilda changed his life. A great read, appropriate photos, as well as lots of information from many different interviews. A must have if you have ever enjoyed a Heath Ledger movie!!!
