Interesting topic, but the format was difficult to tolerate, let alone enjoy. Snippets from separate interviews with child actors and crew members were arranged topically together, but since they were separate interviews, it was a bit choppy and not a real conversation. You could, however, tell when some interviews came later than others, because one actor would comment on the point that another actor had made in the previous snippet, as prompted by the author/interviewer.

The actor's name accompanied each quote, and sometimes I could figure out what show they were on if they mentioned it in the comments or in context with nearby quotes, but I felt like I would need to sit with IMDB open next to me and keep looking up the actors to place them in context and reflect on their shows correctly. I actually wish they showed a headshot of the character they played at the time and the show name underneath of it, preferably with each quote, but at very least in an appendix for reference until I could place the actors' names.
