- By writing a children's book about the operatic heroine
- Aida, a role she often sang, Leontyne Price hoped to get young
- people "reading and understanding the classics." Illustrated
- by Leo and Diane Dillon, her story of the captive Ethiopian
- princess was published last week and, says the diva, in many
- ways is "a love letter to myself." Each time she rereads it,
- she feels "as if I'm back in the opera house performing."
- Price's literary career will have a second act. Her
- autobiography, she promises, will tell all.
