My Review:
This is a wonderful book from someone who spent most of her life helping others write the stories of their lives. She now shares her life story in this unique style that makes you want to read more. She starts off telling of her childhood and the sadness she felt most of her early years. She shares some of the details of suffering from depression. Mostly she tells of the amazing journeys her and her husband shared through the many years of research and writing of such stories. And as we read her stories we realize as she said all roads lead to heaven. Amazing book I would recommend to all my friends.
