With Nineteen Steps hitting the shelves, Millie Bobby Brown revealed another secret behind her grandmother&#039;s storytelling skills.

Months After Revealing the Inspiration for Her Novel, Millie Bobby Brown Admits That Her Grandmother Was Not “a good storyteller”

Millie Bobby Brown [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/millie-bobby-brown/] may be
known for her breakthrough role in Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] but she is now working her way
into other fields as well. From launching her own makeup brand to starring in
various other film franchises, the 19-year-old already has a ton of achievements
to her name. But most recently, she has been in the spotlight for two things,
the upcoming last season of her hit Netflix series and the actress’ first
attempt at storytelling.

Earlier this year, she announced that she would be releasing her first book,
Nineteen Steps. But after revealing the inspiration behind her book, the actress
shocked her fans with a surprising admittance about her grandmother’s
storytelling skills.


MILLIE BOBBY BROWN’S STORYTELLING SKILLS ARE BETTER THAN HER GRANDMOTHER’S

Most fans of Millie Bobby Brown know that the actress absolutely adored her
grandmother. However, during her appearance at the podcast called Family Trips
with the Meyers Brothers, she recently ended up revealing that her grandmother
“wasn’t a wonderful storyteller.” Brown went to tell the hosts that she “would
agree” with her “because she lost her train of thought a lot.” After a few
examples of how her grandmother would tell her yesteryear stories, Brown
explained that she was the better storyteller between the two.



The revelation came shortly after the star opened up about her true intentions
behind the novel

But during the conversation, Brown revealed that her “Nan would tell a story.
And then she’d be like, and then he died. And then and then. And then I fell in
a ditch. And then I made a cup of tea.”, leading to a “tangent” and not
completing the whole story. She also recalled an instance from before her
grandmother’s passing.

The Stranger Things star said, “We called her because we were in Hawaii, I was
filming a movie, and I audio-recorded all of her voice and her telling the
stories.” Brown added that recording was the best idea as it gave her family
something to look back on. The revelation, however, came as a surprise to her
fans. Because Brown had recently said that her grandmother was the inspiration
behind her new novel. But Millie Bobby Brown had an answer to that question as
well.


HOW MILLIE BOBBY BROWN’S GRANDMOTHER INSPIRED HER NOVEL DEBUT

When the news of Millie Bobby Brown releasing a novel broke, nobody could
believe what they were hearing. But after the dust settled, the actress told her
fans that the book had been inspired by the stories her grandmother used to tell
her as a kid. In the same podcast, the Enola Holmes actress revealed how she had
managed to save the stories by recording her grandmother every time she called.
She said, “We were able to kind of gather up all this information and then put
it into writing.”

Though her stories may have changed a bit over the years. Millie Bobby Brown’s
quick thinking gave a second life to her grandmother’s stories. But it also
kicked off a brand-new chapter for the star. Nineteen Steps, which was released
on September 12th, focuses on the experiences of living through World War II.
And evidently, it also brings in a lot of her grandmother’s real experiences.
