My Opinion:
How can you dislike a book about a humanitarian, who is also a princess?! Well, you can't.
This book really didn't tell me anything about Diana Spencer that I did not know already, however, it was one of the best books I have seen in regards to her in factual form.
Very well written and illustrated, a book that anyone should read, and enjoy her life once again.
(4/5)

    It is nice this book didn't fall into the usual rehashing of trash and gossip. Princess Diana did a lot of charitable work that should be remembered.

    I have 3 books about Diana and one large with beautiful pics. I was so sorry when she was killed because she was such a great humanitarian and was not afraid to reach out to the helpless. She held aids babies where most would never touch an aids baby. I wrote an editorial when she died and again a yr later for our local paper about her love of the hopeless and sick and our love for her.

    It will be useful for me because I just know that she is a princess who died in car accident.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
