SETTLE IN WITH A CUP OF TEA AND READ THIS:

Love, Pamela
Pamela Anderson

This week brings is a gripping, pensive, layered and unforgettable memoir by none other than Pamela Anderson. Pamela Anderson was a household name in the 1990’s and now we learn the incredible story behind the small-town girls rocket launch to stardom. In this memoir we discover how being plucked from obscurity at a Canadian football game can quickly turn a young girls dream upside down.  We hear a side to Pamela’s story that none of us would ever have guessed – one of a young shy girl, more interested in nature and injured animals than popularity and fame. How could that girl become tabloid fodder to unscrupulous paparazzi hell-bent on destroying her reputation and self-esteem?

More importantly, we learn how that woman rose above and found sanctuary in her love of art and literature, and emerged a devoted mother and activist.
