“It’s hard to put into words just how deeply this book touched me. It made me laugh, cry, and everything in between. Simply wonderful. A beautiful tribute to a remarkable daughter written straight from the heart by the mother who loved her. If you have ever loved a child, read this book. Heartbreakingly funny, sad, and wise. Both mother and daughter will live in your heart long after you finish reading.”
Fannie Flagg, actress
