Book Description
Winner of the 2023 Independent Publisher Books Award and awarded at the 2023 Cuatro Gatos Foundation Awards With a Butterfly's Wings is a tender story about a girl who loses her beloved grandmother and finds comfort in remembering her through what she learned from her. It was my grandmother who taught me to listen to the song of the birds. Throw her eyes I learned to contemplate those little birds and to perceive what made them so special. Together we heard the blackbird sing among the rumble of the city that was slowly awakening, trying to guess where the bird was. Grandma was my best teacher: she taught me all the secrets of nature, the magic of flowers, the spirit of monarch butterflies. For this reason, even if she is now gone, she will live in me through the song of nature.

Unbreakable
Author: Jenni Rivera
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1476744769
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
The story behind Telemundo’s Jenni Rivera: Mariposa del Barrio series, now streaming. A New York Times bestseller, this is the official biography from the beloved Mexican-American singer who lost her life in a tragic plane crash. The only autobiography authorized by Jenni Rivera "I can’t get caught up in the negative because that destroys you. Perhaps trying to move away from my problems and focus on the positive is the best I can do. I am a woman like any other, and ugly things happen to me like any other woman. The number of times I have fallen down is the number of times I have gotten up." These are the last words that beloved Mexican American singer Jenni Rivera spoke publicly before boarding the plane that would crash and cut her life short on December 9, 2012. However, they are not the final words that La Diva de la Banda had for the world. Those are found in the pages you hold in your hands, Jenni’s own account of the highs and lows of her extraordinary journey. She became the most acclaimed Spanish-language singer in the United States and sold more than 15 million records worldwide. A single mother of five and grandmother of two, she was also an actress, a television producer, the star of her own reality show, and an entrepreneur. But for all its immense success, Jenni’s life often seemed to be a series of personal battles in which perseverance was her only weapon. As her fame grew, she made it her mission to speak about her struggles, forging an intimate connection with her fans. She became a figure of strength and a source of encouragement to women of all ages. In Unbreakable, Jenni recounts the crucial moments in her past, revealing her experiences with domestic and sexual abuse, divorce, body image issues, making her way in a male-dominated industry, raising her children as a single mother, and learning that she could depend only on herself. Though she is no longer with us, Jenni will always be the "Rivera rebel from Long Beach," the girl who maintained her sense of humor and fighting spirit in every circumstance. In this remarkable memoir, Jenni leaves behind a legacy of inspiration and determination that will forever live on through her precious family, friends, and fans.

The Golden Butterfly: My Journey to Heaven on Earth
Author: Aily Carranza
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781953258014
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
Believe in yourself. Trust yourself. Regain your voice and power. You are truly worth it. Imagine being sick your entire life and not knowing what's wrong. Your brain is constantly in a fog. You have trouble making decisions and knowing what's right. You have no energy. You eat nothing and gain weight. You are locked away, verbally abused. Every day is like a bad dream. But this isn't a nightmare-this is Aily Carranza's life. From a young age, Aily knew she was different. She spoke to the angels that surrounded her and guided her, and she had a special ability to understand others. But toxic forces in her life kept her earth-bound like a caterpillar, preventing her from reaching her true potential. An innocent mind poisoned by verbal and emotional abuse destroyed Aily's spirit, and Hashimoto's disease that went undiagnosed and untreated for decades destroyed her body. Her father's murder and an abusive marriage kept her trapped in a cycle of pain. Still, Aily strived to understand-what was wrong with her body, why was she always in a fog, and why could she never seem to do right? But every caterpillar eventually turns into a butterfly. For nearly four decades, Aily crawled through life, filled with fears and insecurities. Finally, with the help she needed, she was able to nurture and heal-finally understanding that self-care does not mean being selfish-and released old fears and wounds one by one. This is the story of Aily Carranza, the Golden Butterfly, and how she escaped a life of hell and is living Heaven on Earth.
