LONG WAY AROUND

About the Book

More than a memoir, this story centers around the life of struggle and survival of a young, single mother with three children whose journey through life takes them on a wild, wide ranging ride of never ending adventures and challenges.

The underlying theme of this story, "God's Master Plan", points out numerous instances along the way where the author believes that God's hand was at work guiding them to where and what they were meant to be doing.
