Modern Role Models: Tobey Maguire

Product Description

When he is swinging from building to building and fighting evil as Spider-Man, Tobey Maguire looks like a superhero. However, he did not always feel like he was on top of the world. Tobey endured a difficult childhood and a great deal of rejection before being noticed for his acting talent.
By going through difficult times, the young actor learned what was important. It was not becoming rich and famous; rather, it was doing the best he could and enjoying what he did. Once he realized that, his talent came through and he found himself swinging to new heights. In addition to Spider-Man, Tobey has starred in such hit films as The Cider House Rules, Pleasantville, and Seabiscuit.
