Younger generations unfortunately will not understand how larger than life Diana really was and it would be difficult to describe. If you will read the book about her or go buy the audiotape you can play it for your children. Even having shared part of the human history with her in this period, I learned quite a bit about the real Diana and all the good she bought to the world. You will learn more and be able to pass on a true account of a larger than life character of the human endeavor. So I recommend to you:
"DIANA-Princess of Whales, Queen of Hearts" By Geoffrey Giuliano.
Very interesting Biography of her life and how she changed the way we all think. The book discusses her great efforts in the AIDS situation, drug abuse, Land mine efforts, poverty, and Homelessness. She never stopped bringing attention to the World's Problems and offering solutions through her charity work even after she was no longer the Princess. She was a great person and should be remembered as such. The People's Princess-that she was. She was a school teacher, a nanny, a philanthropist, a spokesperson for the world and a member of the elite royal family. She never forgot her roots, her people or her children. I recommend that every one learn more about her life so they can strive to achieve in their lives what she had taught by example.
The book and the audio tape were both good as the audio also contained excerpts from many interviews in their own voices describing their associations with Diana including Tony Blair, Nelson Mandela, Bill Clinton, Speaker of the House, Famous actors and many others. It is very interesting to see today in Afghanistan that they are talking on TV about Land Mines and actually covering in great detail the problem surrounding those land mines. Even more interesting was to watch as many landmine sweepers were loaded onto trains in the US and sent over there to help. It seems many of the things we do today and think about on a social level can be attributed to her life. Get the tape, share it with your kids and think on it.
