Publisher's Synopsis
This is the story of a girl who was wilful, disobedient and cheeky. Her headstrong and often impulsive nature saw her in trouble many times as a young teenager, yet that same determination and tenacious attitude became her greatest asset as she grew into an independent and often resilient woman. Valerie Howard loves life and loves an adventure. With a 'glass full' rather than 'glass half empty' attitude, she appreciates the many blessings and lessons life has thrown at her, taking the good times, the hard and the heartbreaking all in her stride. In this her first book, Val shares that turbulent but joyous journey primarily for her children and grandchildren to enjoy, in the hope of passing on that strong, determined and 'can do almost anything' attitude
