What they are saying about The Truth:

“This wonderful story is about a girl on the cusp of puberty, as spoken in her own voice. She is childish and immature, but she is wise beyond her years. She offers a fresh perspective on adult life that can only be offered by one who is not yet there. I could feel her pain and her joy as she struggled with the issues of her transition from childhood to adolescence. I laughed and cried as I read it. It is a delightful reading experience.” ~Barbara Fleischer, Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist and Psychoanalyst

“Reading and enjoying The Truth, the plethora of opportunities presented to, and embraced by, this girl will stir in you profound recognition of your own early opportunities. What memories they will evoke, what excitement, what expectation! Please join me in visiting the magnificent inner life of one girl, whose diary reveals The Truth.” ~Martha Trowbridge writes Inspiration for Women In Crisis, including The Woman You Were Born To Be.

"The Truth, provides entertaining reading for women of all ages, including mothers of daughters and teenage girls. Woven through the compelling and charming episodes are messages of self-esteem, self-reliance, getting to know yourself, having adventures and understanding parents and their limitations. Reading The Truth can easily be the stimulation for discussions between women, between mother and daughters and between client and therapist." ~Sandra Prince-Embury, Ph.D., Clinical Psychologist, The Resiliency Center of Allenhurst

“The Truth is the most delightful, refreshing and inspiring book I’ve read in a long time.
