Letter to My Daughter
by Maya Angelou

It's the author's first original collection of writing to be published in ten years...anecdotal vignettes drawn from a compelling life. Beginning with her childhood, Angelou acknowledges her own inauguration into daughterhood.This volume is filled with wisdom and warmth, with sound advice, vivid memory and strong opinion (typical Angelou). Letter to My Daughter is a gem of wisdom and inspiration. Every woman, daughter (father and son) should read it at least once. This book has become a permanent fixture in my personal library.
