A spoof celebrity memoir, this is pure fiction and not to be taken seriously. Delphinia is British and her writing reflects this. The back cover of Delphinia's book might read: At the tender age of seven, Delphinia Hargreaves won the nation's hearts as enchanting young star of the immensely popular television drama "Rainbow's Magic", which was to run for six series. Now aged twenty-three, Delphinia looks back on her life as a celebrity, revealing horrific details of the abusive treatment she received on the set of "Rainbow's Magic" and the impoverished, uncaring home life from which she was trying to escape. This inspiring memoir, related with courageous candour and good humour, will move you to tears. A reviewer, on the other hand, might state: Delphinia Hargreaves burst on to our television screens as precocious seven-year-old star of the popular family drama "Rainbow's Magic". In this eye-opening account of her showbiz childhood, Delphinia talks about her family, her co-stars, her life as a celebrity and what she has been doing since "Rainbow's Magic" finished. This outrageously arrogant and self-serving memoir will take your breath away.

He has very definite ideas about life, and feels he possesses profound insight into the human condition. These definitions reflect Charlie's personal experience and perspective. He has no concept of rabbits and so there are no poems about rabbits. Similarly, he doesn't know any interesting words beginning with Z and so his alphabet ends with Y.
