Publisher's Synopsis
An inspiring story of one orphan's metamorphosis.In a moving, deeply personal account of her life story, Kai Monet Penn chronicles her odyssey from a traumatic childhood spent in foster care to a life of fulfillment and success. Kai takes us on a journey from the '90s to the present day as she trounces one obstacle after another and emerges stronger after each challenge conquered. We meet her as a young black sheep in Philadelphia, where drug abuse was something she had to witness first hand. Hurt and neglected by those who should have loved and cared for her, mistreatment and sadness weighed heavy on her prospects for a brighter future, the kind of glittering, radiant future every child deserves. Kai soon blossoms into a caterpillar, where she acknowledges and accepts the flaws and issues permeating her world and the world around her. She guides us further as she cocoons all that she had learned over the years and shows us how she managed to rewrite her experiences and knowledge into a life of purpose. With God as her guide, Kai shows us how she grew and metamorphosed into the butterfly she is today. A spiritual, self-help gem, Black Sheep Are Really Butterflies paints an inspiring path to help others craft their own transformation.
