The Best Book Ever!

This has to be one of my favorite books ever! I just loved the true accounts of all the events that happened to her. Even if you don't like her other novels, you'l love hearing about how she grew up in a 2 bedroom house in the ghetto with her mother, father, and 5 brothers and sisters. And how they struggled to buy simple things in life such as bread and milk. And I cried when I read of how Lois and her siblings had to eat on a rotation(Lois ate every Monday and Thursday). But as you read on, you see that she climbed her way up the ladder and is now a multi-millionare! Also there are some great pictures of her as a child, my favorite is the one of the little girl with the crooked legs. This is an amazing biography and it is definitely worth reading!
