Born into Hollywood royalty, the granddaughter of the great John Barrymore, Drew Barrymore became one of the biggest stars of her generation. Despite an unconventional childhood, her life went on an incredible trajectory (in both good and difficult ways) after starring in ET at the age of six. She became an emancipated adult at the age of fourteen and built a life and career of her own that millions of fans admire. Growing up wasn’t always easy for Drew, but through patience, hard work, and great friendships, she did it.
Wildflower is a portrait of Drew’s life in stories as she looks back on the adventures, challenges, and incredible experiences she’s had throughout her life. It includes tales of living in her first apartment as a teenager (and how laundry may have saved her life), getting stuck under a gas station overhang on a cross-country road trip, saying good-bye to her father in a way only he could have understood , and many more adventures and lessons that have led her to the life she has today.
And that life, as readers will learn, couldn’t be more happy or successful. As an actress, producer, entrepreneur and mother to daughters Olive and Frankie, Drew has found a happiness, balance and peace that is truly inspirational.
