Diane Kruger wrote this children's book after spending an extended period with her mother during the pandemic. Inspired by her childhood and her daughter, the book explores themes of belonging, self-discovery, and the importance of individual uniqueness.
So I was in Los Angeles just before the pandemic and I was working, right? And my mom from Germany was there helping with my daughter who was about one at the time. And then the world shut down and weeks turned into months, literally.
And I remember that when I was a kid, and I was kind of an odd kid, that she changed my life by telling me the meaning of my name, which was quite unusual in Germany.
It's not common at all. So do they say Diane or do they say- They say Diane and it rhymes with banana, like Diana banana.
And so I started writing it down and I thought about my own daughter and how long we thought about giving her a name. And that's kind of how it started.
It's a really wonderful book about belonging, about understanding where you come from, why you're special, why you're important.
