Michelle is the author of “A Child’s Voice” which will be available in July 2008. The memoir is about a young girl who was raised in the country by her grandparents from the time she was three weeks old until she was eight years old. While living in the country with her extended family she experienced love and was free to be a child to explore and to grow. A telegram came, and reluctantly, this girl had to go and live with her parents far away from the people who raised her. For years, there was no escape from her parents. She questioned God and Life. Positive, responsible adults such as her grandmother who loved, believed, and respected her, fueled her passion to be normal to achieve and overcome the traumatic struggles that had nearly destroyed her inner soul.
The passion and desperation to write this book was as important as breathing; it could not be ignored. I was led to write this book for all the children and adults who do not and did not have a voice.
