5 stars
Ron and Clint Howard take turns telling a little about their lives before acting and how they became child actors then move on into their adventures while growing up and trying to be normal while actors. I am not surprised about what all was shared or exposed about themselves with the exception of a couple of things about Clint.
I did not grow up(born in 67) watching a lot of TV so a lot of the shows they mentioned I found when I was in my late teens and adulthood. I had forgotten about or not heard of a few of their movies/shows.
The book has great pictures in the middle so I can put faces with people. It is a smooth read with very little, to no bashing, just a straightforward tell-it like it is telling of how they saw things while growing up about other fellow actors. To me, they are both as nice as they seem to be.

I listened to the audio. Ron and Clint each narrated their own sections and it was really well done.

But...the audio didn't come with any of the pictures, which was a bummer.

I might have to check this out sometime!
