A Gifted Child in Foster Care: A Story of Resilience

A Gifted Child in Foster Care: A Story of Resilience
Posted By: Grace LaJoy on September 13, 2009


I am the author of 13 books, my most recent two books are A Gifted Child in Foster Care and An Urgent Call to the Power of Ministry. I am an inpsirational speaker and I conduct workshops for youth and adults. A Gifted Child in Foster Care: A Story of Resilience, is a true story that reveals what my life was like before during and after foster care.



It encourages youth and adults to recognize their own gifts and talents as well as those of others. It compels everyone who reads it to strive in the midst of adversity and to never give up on their goals and dreams. Read the press release for A Gifted Child in Foster Care and/or buy the book at www.gracelajoy.com/GiftedChild.htm
