An Excellent Choice for Avid Leo Fans!

I think this book was wonderful! The pictures were of excellent quality and more intimate than those in other books. It'd be a wonderful gift for anyone who collects Leo stuff! The bio was unlike any other, and I was impressed that the author (Victoria Looseleaf) ACTUALLY knew him! Most other writers get their info from magazine articles, which I frown upon. I give this book 5 stars! Read it and you'll understand why I enjoyed it so much!

Level headed book on the star.

As far a all the hype about Leonardo Di Caprio has taken us, it is good to have a level-headed, accurate and sympathetic book about the young actor. Written by someone who has known him throughout his life you learn about who the real Leonardo is. He should be very pleased that Ms. Looseleaf took the time to set the story straight.
