The Principles of Liza Minnelli in Kids, Wait Till You Hear This - A Celebrity Memoir of Family Values, Timeless Lessons, and Stories Worth Passing Down #957832

What does a woman who has sung at Carnegie Hall, survived Hollywood royalty, buried legends, and reinvented herself more times than the tabloids could count have to say about raising children and building a family?
As it turns out — everything.
In Kids, Wait Till You Hear This!, Liza Minnelli pulls up a chair at the most important stage she has ever occupied — the kitchen table — and shares the lessons that no spotlight ever taught her. Born to Judy Garland and Vincente Minnelli, raised in the sequined chaos of Old Hollywood, and forged by decades of public triumphs and very private struggles, Liza has spent a lifetime learning the difference between performing a life and actually living one.
This is not a traditional memoir, though memories breathe through every page. It is not a parenting manual, though it will change how you parent. It is an invitation — warm, honest, occasionally devastating, and frequently funny — to sit with one of the most extraordinary women of the twentieth century and receive what she has spent a lifetime earning: the wisdom that only comes from having loved deeply, lost greatly, fallen publicly, and risen anyway.
From the difference between applause and love, to the financial lessons nobody in feathers ever discusses, to the art of telling stories worth passing down, Liza writes with the kind of candor that only becomes possible when you have finally stopped performing for the audience and started speaking directly to the people who matter.
For parents. For children of complicated families. For anyone who has ever stood in the wreckage of something they loved and wondered what to salvage and what to pass forward.
The table is still set. Pull up a chair.
