Tom Felton Felt So

Thomas Andrew Felton is a musician and actor from the UK. He first tried out for the part of Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter film series when he was twelve years old. These movies are adaptations of the best-selling Harry Potter fantasy novels by author J. K. Rowling. At the age of eight, Felton began acting in commercials, and at ten, he began acting in motion pictures. He has since appeared in all eight Harry Potter movies, which run from 2001 to 2011, and has finished filming the final two. In 2010, Felton won the MTV Movie Award for Best Villain for his depiction of Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. For every Harry Potter lover, Tom Felton's autobiography Beyond the Wand is a must-read that is both fascinating and moving. Get the backstage pass to life and dilemmas of the wizard boy Tom Felton.

From the magical moments on set as Draco Malfoy to the challenges of growing up in the spotlight, get a backstage pass into Tom Felton’s life on and off the big screen in this #1 New York Times bestseller. Tom Felton’s adolescence was anything but ordinary. His early rise to fame in beloved films like The Borrowers catapulted him into the limelight, but nothing could prepare him for what was to come after he landed the iconic role of the Draco Malfoy, the bleached blonde villain of the Harry Potter movies. For the next ten years, he was at the center of a huge pop culture phenomenon and yet, in between filming, he would go back to being a normal teenager trying to fit into a normal school. Speaking with great candor and his signature humor, Tom shares his experience growing up as part of the wizarding world while also trying to navigate the muggle world. He tells stories from his early days in the business like his first acting gig where he was mistaken for fellow blonde child actor Macaulay Culkin and his Harry Potter audition where, in a very Draco-like move, he fudged how well he knew the books the series was based on (not at all). He reflects on his experiences working with cinematic greats such as Alan Rickman, Sir Michael Gambon, Dame Maggie Smith, and Ralph Fiennes (including that awkward Voldemort hug). And, perhaps most poignantly, he discusses the lasting relationships he made over that decade of filming, including with Emma Watson, who started out as a pesky nine-year-old whom he mocked for not knowing what a boom mic was but who soon grew into one of his dearest friends. Then, of course, there are the highs and lows of fame and navigating life after such a momentous and life-changing experience. Tom Felton’s Beyond the Wand is an entertaining, funny, and poignant must-read for any Harry Potter fan. Prepare to meet a real-life wizard.

This is a book that I use to share stories of survival, and determination in adversity. It is also a love story where one realizes the power of loving one another and creating a better society to live in. In this copy I show the importance of having a vision, daring to dream, and then making it happen. This inspirational book will leave you with answers that you probably never thought would work, like what I call the key to life. For example- Living life without fear and following your dream even when everything seems not to make sense in anyway. In the same tone embracing Love because love is stronger than fear, but of course, we can decide to let the fear in us be bigger than everything paralyzing us such that we even fear to love because we fear to hurt. That’s when fear rules. Listen to this but now, when love rules so many doors open for you because you are not ruled by your insecurities, but hope that you will succeed and that you will be loved. Furthermore, even when you are not succeeding right away you hope that tomorrow will bring success and do not stop because you fear. Clearly, love also has so much power equal to fear depending on what you choose to embrace between the two. I personally would like to tell you to choose Love over fear and live a beautiful life.
