Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
They called for a break, and Gambon magicked up a cigarette from out of his beard. He and I were often to be found outside the stage door, having 'a breath of fresh air', as we referred to it. There would be painters and plasterers and chippies and sparks, and among them all would be me and Dumbledore having a crafty cigarette.
From Borrower to wizard, Tom Felton's adolescence was anything but ordinary. His early rise to fame saw him catapulted into the limelight aged just twelve when he landed the iconic role of Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films.
Speaking with candour and his own trademark humour, Tom shares his experience of growing up on screen and as part of the wizarding world for the very first time. He tells all about his big break, what filming was really like and the lasting friendships he made during ten years as part of the franchise, as well as the highs and lows of fame and the reality of navigating adult life after filming finished.
Prepare to meet a real-life wizard.
Now featuring a totally new chapter

Very well done
Tom Felton's narration of his own experience was heartfelt, brutal and honest. I think I appreciate him ever more now as an entertainer. He should also consider doing more audiobook narrations because I found his style of story telling very engaging. I would absolutely listen to more audiobooks if he narrated them. This was a great listen and I am a little sad I listened to it too fast.

Nice peek into Felton’s life so far
Really enjoyed listening to the stories about Tom’s life outside of Harry Potter. His openness about mental health is very refreshing.
