"Sarah Palin writes an engaging personal memoir covering her humble beginnings as the daughter of a teacher to her rise as the 2008 Republican V.P. candidate. The many antidotes shared about her life in the Alaskan frontier as well as personal stories about her family are heartwarming and often humorous. No matter what your political standing, you will come away with a greater understanding and appreciation for the sacrifices made by those who choose to stand by their faith and convictions in politics."

"I loved this book of a mother who never gave up on her child. It is amazing and wonderful how the human brain works. As a music teacher myself, it is truly unbelievable the way Rex's brain is wired with such musical ability. I am glad that Ms. Lewis told her son's story and is willing to share her son's amazing talents with the world!"
