My book of the month for July is a collection of comments from various celebrities about pieces of music which mean a lot to them. Compiled and edited by Jackie McGregor, this fascinating collection will raise money for dementia charities, a cause close to Jackie's heart because her parents both suffered from this terrible affliction.
Celebrities who contributed to They Can't Take That Away From Me include Joan Collins, Richard Madeley, Lynda Bellingham, Joanna Lumley - the list goes on and on!
We all know someone who has been affected by dementia, either personally or because they care for a loved one with the disease, so we should all be willing to help raise funds for this worthwhile cause.
Definitely one for my wishlist and for such a great cause too.
ReplyDeleteA lovely Blog and a a very worth while cause. x
ReplyDeleteIt's a fascinating book - partly because you'd think some celebrities would naturally prefer rock, or classic, or indie, but they're full of surprises! Many of the quotes are very moving, too. It's clear that music really can change lives.
