The Sound of Music is based on a true story. In real life, Maria, who really was a nun, was sent to Captain von Trapp to take care of his sickly daughter. Eventually, they fell in love and got married. World War 2 forced them to leave Austria and at that time, Maria was pregnant with a son. And then she wrote a book called "The Story of the von Trapp Singers," which was made into "The Sound of Music." The names of the children were not the real actual names and some of the characters weren't real, either.
