My Name is Barbra by Barbra Streisand is a fantastic book: easy to read, lots of human interest stories, a thorough biographical expose of a talented, generous, productive person. The hard cover edition has good typeface and is easy to read. The photos are absolutely fantastic. Barbara's expressed thoughts and feelings reinvigorate humanity into a human species which desperately need a reminder to be kind and giving. Barbra reminds us that talent, hard work and gentle word are all important to propel a person into accomplishment and recognition. Buy a friend, relative or public school library this book for a Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa or just the opportunity of sharing the biography of an inspiring life, lived well and lived strong. Barbra is working hard for peace and discovery of a creative spark. Not a lazy bone in her body, she, over 80 yrs old continues to build a house of love for our children and families around the world. Her voice unites us in song, bringing tears to our eyes. Brava Barbra!
