Editorial Reviews

Dawn's Daughter could easily be a dialog between two women- one young, just beginning to find herself, and the other, a more mature, more experienced woman who desires the best for all young women. Basically, it is all about the choices we make. Dawn's Daughter, is a conversation across the kitchen table between two women. It is good, down-to-earth advice for women of all ages. We're never too old to learn. Coming from a more mature woman, I agree wholeheartedly with this book.

In a time when it seems as though the personal values that made our nation great need to regain their prominence, we have an intense need to make sure that our positive values are rediscovered and transferred down through the generations. Reaching back through generations, Dawn's Daughter brings to the surface those time honored values that facilitate personal development.
