Inspirational Book

My mother gave me this book for Christmas when I was younger, I have never forgotten the impact in made in my life. This book made me realize my dreams and helped jump start my education. I competed for the title in my hometown of Warden for the Warden Junior Miss Program. After winning the title, I then competed at the Washington Junior Miss Program. I did not win however it did help me realize that dreams are very reachable. I worked hard in school and was later given a full scholarship in to The University of Washington and the NASA Space Grant. My dream of becoming an Aeronautical Engineer is becoming a reality. This book is great for young adults. I recommend it to parents for their teens.
