Book Description

8 and up
Children have dreams as they grow up, and so did little Anita Perella-to be a famous actress, or an explorer, or a writer. She never dreamed that one day she'd be running The Body Shop, a global corporation with a conscience.

This jaunty authorized biography, copiously illustrated with bright color illustrations, explores the early years of the famous Anita Roddick, internationally respected business woman. Bonus features include Anita's personal health and beauty tips throughout the book, snapshots from her photo album, and a special section featuring things we all can do for the world.

This book was a great way for me to share with my kids the story of an amazing woman whom the world will sorely miss! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to start teaching their kids about the importance of social responsibility in the business world.

This review is from: Anita!: The Woman Behind the Body Shop (Hardcover)
I bought this book for myself and was very disappointed about it. It should have been mentioned somewhere that this is a children book for the age 7 upto 12 y.o.
