If you bought directly from Fida or read it by borrowing from library or family or friend, she would like to invite you to write a short review at Xlibris.

"An intimate look into the life of an American housewife and mother who has a dream. She pursues her dream to write a book. All the while, taking the reader on an adventure, navigating through her obstacles with precision. The fact that the author was raised in Indonesia, and wrote this book in English, is a perk. The words sometimes give the reader the feeling she writes English as she would speak it, with a hint that she is educated in another language. I enjoyed her inclusion that shows her proficiency in a professional position in a writing course in Indonesia. Her recollections of her childhood were very moving. I was impressed by her cooking of delectable Asian/Indonesian meals, entertaining, tending to her beautiful garden, teaching her daughter the skills of life, and being a loving wife, while possessing a certain independence. This book illustrates what a person can accomplish with dedication and hard work, drive and strong will. I read the book twice. Fida Abbott is a compassionate, kind, exuberant and intelligent person. I am fortunate enough to know her personally. She is a member of my church. She greets everyone with a sparkle in her eye and “Enthusiasm”. I loved reading her book."
