Story Behind The Book
This book started out as a letter a few years ago to my then 16 year daughter, who thought that she was "The Little Engine Who Could." That said, " I think I can, I think I can," and I was saying, No you can't, not Yet! What she didn't realize was I had already traveled down the road that she was trying to take. There was no way I was going to sit idly by and not do anything. Whether she listened or not I told her the truth about issues that many families tend to keep secret or never talk about with there children and that is there past failures and mistakes. I challenged her to take a different route than I did and gave her the tools and encouragement that she needed to do so. I then realized that those same tools and encouragement would be helpful to other young women as well. Thus the first book, Dear Daughter: How To Choose Your Way To A Better Life book 1, in a series of books for young women was born.
