Inside Out (Disney Pixar: Big Golden Books)

Product Information

Overall, ‘Inside Out’ was amazing. I highly recommend it and would love to hear your opinions on it. What did I need to do to be accepted? Was it best to stand out or blend in? It would be decades before it occurred to me that I could be whoever I truly am, not the person I guessed other people wanted to see." After Demi made GI Jane, she learned that her mother was dying from lung cancer and a brain tumor. Demi went to stay with her mom in Farmington, New Mexico, and came to 'an understanding' with Ginny before she died. During this time, Bruce and Demi ended their union, though they continued to co-parent successfully. To provide a stable home for her girls, Demi decided to put her career on hold and become a full-time mom. Demi settled into her home in Idaho, took care of her daughters, and pledged not to use alcohol, drugs, or food to get through her divorce. What problem does Riley think running away will fix? Why is she wrong? What could have happened to her if she'd gone through with her plan? Parents, talk to your kids about why Riley's idea -- and how she went about trying to accomplish it -- is not an example to follow. It took a long time for Demi to realize she'd been raped. She says, "For decades, I didn’t even think of it as rape. I thought of it as something I caused, something I felt obligated to do because this man expected it from me. I had let him expect it from me. I was an easy mark for a predator." In Demi's view, the assault contributed to her subsequent substance abuse and anxiety problems.

Inside Out Big Golden Book (Disney/Pixar Inside Out)

Inside Out has many themes but one main theme is courage. Courage is used by not letting something take control of a person’s life. This is evident to the main character because he is stranded with Frosty and Stormy but would not let them control them and make him do anything he doesn’t want to do. Frosty and Stormy are the robbers of the coffee shop. They are very distractible people and seem to want to have everything done their way. They become very sensitive towards the end of the book when they tell Zach why they robbed the store. Frosty and Stormy are very honest characters throughout the book.

Did we miss something on diversity?

It's truly amazing she survived such a hardscrabble life with a volatile mother and found her way to Hollywood. Her young marriage makes sense and I wonder what would have happened to her if she hadn't been successful on General Hospital.

First of all, this was an interesting book. 1st book I read that is by Terry Trueman and maybe the last...

Much of the information regarding her childhood and upbringing was news to me. I didn’t even know she had once had a role on a popular soap opera early in her career. Before long, Demi had captured my rapt attention as I digested all this information.

I’ve always loved Demi Moore (and for that matter, Ally Sheedy: where is your memoir, please?) largely on the basis of WAY too many unsupervised watches of St. Elmo’s Fire when I was waaaay too young of a working-class Midwestern child to even remotely understand it. Survivor is a good word to describe Demi. She had a pretty messed up childhood, has been thru 3 divorces, has experienced both box office successes and disappointments, has had periods of estrangement from different family members, and battled addiction. And yet, she's still standing. She seems to be in a pretty good place right now and I would imagine writing this memoir proved to be a cathartic experience.When I read this book, it forced me to see things that I don't understand in a whole new light. And when I hit the end of the book... Well, let's just say JAW DROPPING! Best of all, if you dislike Ashton Kutcher as much as I do, this book won’t do anything to disrupt that, but without going all overboard about it or giving him the reward of excessive negative attention. As this book makes abundantly clear, he is literally the least interesting aspect of her life. She was married to actor Ashton Kutcher before divorcing in 2013. She writes about having two threesomes with Kutcher that left her with feelings of shame. "Because we had brought in a third party into our relationship, Ashton said, that blurred the lines and, to some extent, justified what he's done," Moore writes about Kutcher cheating on her. Moore recalls a time when Kutcher told her that "I don't know if alcoholism is a real thing." [18] She also recalls a time she was drinking with Kutcher and she passed out in a hot tub in Mexico. "Ashton had encouraged me to go in this direction. When I went too far, though, he let me know how he felt by showing a picture he'd taken of me resting my head on the toilet the night before. It seemed like a good-natured joke at the time. But it was really just shaming," she writes. Two years into her marriage to Kutcher, Moore revealed that she became pregnant at 42 and then lost her child almost six months into the pregnancy. [16] After the couple divorced in 2013, Moore began abusing Vicodin and alcohol. During that time, her three daughters stopped speaking to her, and her former husband and friend, Bruce Willis, grew distant as well. I didn't make it a mission to read her memoir, but I borrowed the audiobook from the library and after listening to it, I am very happy I did. Demi Moore is the same age as I am, so I could relate to to the time she grew up in. Her parents were very young when they had her. And her early life was full of domestic drama and frequent moves - just ahead of the law.

I know we’ve had some global warming since, but it seems like it’s pretty much always at least 70 degrees and super humid in the DC area (where the film is set and where I now live**), and I’ve definitely left the windows open pretty much year-round in any apartment I’ve ever occupied around here, with absolutely no self-directed malicious intent, so this movie scene remains mystifying to me today. I’m sure that the actual risk being alluded to was something like overdose, and that there were ample veiled 80s cocaine and pill references going on in the film that I missed, being barely over 10 and fully immersed in the Just Say No campaign.) All this was too much for Ginny, who - when the family lived in Pennsylvania - tried to kill herself. Demi writes, "I remember using my fingers, the small fingers of a child, to dig the pills my mother had tried to swallow out of her mouth while my father held it open and told me what to do." This turned out to be the first of Ginny's many suicide attempts, and Demi remained constantly on the watch, feeling she had to 'help her parents clean up their messes.'

She discusses her relationships, most notably with Bruce Willis, the father of her three daughters, and then Ashton Kutcher. With so much toxicity in today’s world, it’s nice to see Demi and Bruce were, for the most part, able to maintain a strong family unit and co-parent well together after they split. If this book were to be published into a movie actors and actresses would play the part I don’t know any actors and actresses that can’t play the part all they need is to be able to keep a constant acting role but otherwise they all can do it all. In 2003, Demi revived her career by making Charlie's Angels Full Throttle. While Demi was in New York doing advanced press for the movie she met Ashton Kutcher, and it was kismet!! Demi and Ashton had an instant connection, though she was 15 years older than him. (People made a big deal out of this, but had nothing to say about Bruce Willis marrying a woman 25 years younger than himself. The hypocrisy is stunning!!)
