Dawn French, Dear Fatty

I always thought I would like the real Dawn French but I really felt drawn more and more to her warmth of character and I thought the novel way of writing her memoires by way of private letters to her family and friends was quite brilliant!It was funny,charming and a little sad at bits but a totally good read.I read this in two days and still haven't finnished a similar genre book by Mr Jonathan Ross!!

Dear Fatty takes the form of a set of humerous and heart warming short letters written by Dawn French drawing on the experiences throughout her life and the people she has interacted with. It is funny, touching, honest and sad but at all times displays completely humility for anything that has happened. I for one found it quite an eye opener into a life I obviosuly didn't really know anything about but now feel richer for having more of an insight. I have always admired Dawn French and Dear Fatty has simply cemented my belief that she is a loving, genuine and caring person who should always be remembered as a national comedic hero. I also love all the old photos in the book.

Dear Fatty by Dawn French is very funny and sad made me laugh till I had tears and cry with the sad. it gives a real insight into what a fab woman she is and what an incredible life she has been inriched with. her husband and family should be very proud of her wich I,m sure they are. It was good the way it was writen by letters

A must read for any one, fan or not who likes honesty, warmth, love ozzes from the pages. Made me smile, and laugh, and cry. I have always felt that Ms French was a genuine warm person and now I know.
