Much more than recipes. This book includes lots of little-known trivia about the making of the film and over 100 never-before-seen photos from behind-the-scenes of the movie.
At the age of 6, Karolyn Grimes played the role of Zuzu Bailey in the holiday film "It's a Wonderful Life." Her childhood film career spanned 16 movies, including another holiday classic, The Bishops Wife. But she is best remembered for playing the daugther of George and Mary Bailey (James Stewart and Donna Reed). And for uttering her famous line, "Every time a bell rings an angel gets his wings."
From the author:
"The recipes from my mother's recipe box have brought back many memories of great meals and lots of fun.
These are delicious recipes that not only my mother prepared but my father contributed as well. This book is a celebration of "It's a Wonderful Life", the most inspirational motion picture of all time, and acknowledges the 60th anniversary of the release in December of 1946.
I am also excited to share with you over 100 photos of my own personal life, with most of the photos being scenes both off and on the screen from It's a Wonderful Life."
In June of 2006 It's a Wonderful Life was voted the most inspiring movie of all time by the AFI. (The American Film Institute) The story, the characters, the very substance of the film speaks to all of us. This book is a tribute to that honor."
