This book is an eye opener to not to succumb to a marriage that doesn't work and you can't buy love nor force anyone to love you! There are so many red flags in relationships that one should not ignore🥺while reading towards the final chapters I saw a bit of myself in there but to wrap it all what an amazing sad truth this book has brought to all women out there who has lost self worth because we give it all n forget who we are and forget our dreams this book demonstrate clearly how some men can mirror you as a woman just for you to cover his inferior complex or feed his greedy desired!!
We love this book! It speaks so honestly to the struggle of so many of our children who are battling with self acceptance in this crazy world they are forced to navigate. Not only is the message beautiful, but the illustrations are a delicate treat to appreciate by Mom and Dad as well :)
