A truly delightful classic with memorable songs and fun antics. It is interesting to see the way that the nature/nurture debate plays out in this piece without ever once mentioning the underlying assumptions, and makes for entertaining theatre, which is read better if you are familiar enough with the piece that you know the tunes to the songs and can hear them in your head.

Even though I hate the ending, I LOVE this play. I get the songs stuck in my head all the freaking time. This is also the only move I love Rex Harrison in. (

I love this story very much.The book has some pictures of the seans of the movie.Audrey is pretty.I want to watch the movie because I will be able to enjoy more after reading it. (

I had seen this story on movie. The girl who name is Eliza speaks dialect English. Dr. Higgins tried to her to speak Standard English. Then she becomes nice lady.
I like her character very much because no matter how hard thins were, she didn’t give up! I think she is really strong women. I want to be women like her. (

This is the story that Eliza Doolittle – a young London woman who is flower-seller with a very strong London accent – is educated for being a lady by Professor Higgins. This book was so interesting! But this was originally a musical. Listening to songs, I’ll be able to understand how great it is more. I would like to see it. (
