About this listen
In this autobiography, I talk about the trials I faced when I had scoliosis...the casts and operations that lasted for three years. Attending college, serving as a young missionary, and falling in love were years to remember. Why did I call this book Never Too Late to Dream? Every accomplishment I have achieved happened after I turned 50. After the age of 50, I graduated from college with a bachelor's degree in theater and arts, I performed for a concert series and made a CD, and I became an author. I also toured the United States, teaching people how to write their biographies. I believe it is never too late to achieve your dreams. These were years to remember.

She held her grandmother's hand, but she thought that was because Grandmother needed her help not the other way around.

As she was digging deep into the lives of community members, Heather Lende, the obituary writer for her tiny hometown newspaper in Haines, Alaska, began to notice something. Even the crustiest old Alaskan sourpuss who died in a one-room cabin always had Halloween candy for the neighborhood kids, and the eccentric owner of the seafood store who regularly warned her about government conspiracies knew how to be a true friend - his memorial service was packed.

Where the Light Fell is a gripping family narrative set against a turbulent time in post-World War II America, shaped by the collision of Southern fundamentalism with the mounting pressures of the civil rights movement and '60s-era forces of social change. In piecing together his fragmented personal history and his search for redemption, Yancey gives testament to the enduring power of our hunger for truth and the possibility of faith rooted in grace instead of fear.

When Reyna Grande was nine years old, she walked across the US-Mexico border in search of a home, desperate to be reunited with the parents who had left her behind years before for a better life in the City of Angels. What she found instead was an indifferent mother, an abusive, alcoholic father, and a school system that belittled her heritage. With so few resources at her disposal, Reyna finds refuge in words, and it is her love of reading and writing that propels her to rise above until she achieves the impossible and is accepted to the University of California, Santa Cruz.

Our preteen years, ages nine to 13, can present some of the most difficult times in our young lives, a period of tremendous physical and emotional change. We're eager to leave the "kid" stage, yet we're uncertain about what adolescence will bring; we start hearing the familiar refrain "wait until you're older" far too often. Chicken Soup for the Preteen Soul is a companion guide for these transitional years.

Chika Jeune was born three days before the devastating earthquake that decimated Haiti in 2010. She spent her infancy in a landscape of extreme poverty, and when her mother died giving birth to a baby brother, Chika was brought to The Have Faith Haiti Orphanage that Albom operates in Port Au Prince. With no children of their own, the 40-plus children who live, play, and go to school at the orphanage have become family to Mitch and his wife, Janine. But at age five, Chika is suddenly diagnosed with something a doctor there says "no one in Haiti can help you with."

Interesting to hear background
I’ve read a lot by this author so it was really interesting to hear some of her life story and where she got ideas for certain things and even some of her methods. This book will be a real graduate and keepsake for her family too

Loved it!
I just finished listening to this wonderful autobiography by Linda Weaver Clarke that was narrated by Carolyn Kashner. The story was a real joy to listen to. It is an uplifting story of the life of Linda Weaver Clark from childhood to adulthood. It included hard times, good times and everything in between.
The book is a Christian book with lots of good lessons to learn for anyone. She tells about listening to the Still Small Voice as she comes to points in her life of decisions and even impending dangers.
I was surprised to learn her major in college was basically the same as mine. She had many trials to work through in her life, perhaps which would be enough to make others give up but Linda never gave up despite the troubles that gave her experiences in her life that probably made her the woman that she is today.
She writes about wanting to be a "normal" teenager. And I think the experiences she writes about will help others in their trials that sometimes feel so unfair and unwanted.
This is a really interesting story to listen to as well as a good source for ideas in telling your own story for your children and their descendants. Very enjoyable!
I received an Audible version of this book from the author. All thoughts are my own.

Encouragement
In this Autobiography we learn all about Linda Weaver Clarke starting from funny, mischievous antidotes from her childhood through ministry, her wedding to her husband and the birth of her children. And all her struggles and accomplishments!
Woven all through this book is the love and power of God.
I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author. These are my own and honest opinions.
