Meet Wonderful -- a sweet and precocious young girl growing up in the Southside of Chicago. Wonderful, her mother and father, and six brothers and sister grew up in a part of town that most people ignored in the days of the 1960s. Not much has changed as far as the neighborhood, but Wonderful has changed -- some may even say has been reborn. Wonderful's father died when she was only eleven years old. This tragic event molded the way that Wonderful perceived things. She was angry and she worked out that anger during her teenage years and into her adult life through sex, drugs, alcohol, abusive relationships and self-destructive habits. One day everything changed -- Wonderful had an epiphany -- she began to view life in a brand new way. She regained her faith in God; she found a Twelve-Step program to rid herself of the addictions, both physical and mental, that had kept her from being free. She became a talented, humorous and intelligent woman. In other words, Wonderful healed. She embraced her pain and used it to heal herself, to give hope and to inspire others to do the same. Taylor Ashley Storm's beautifully written tale is based on her life.It is a story of love, acceptance, and forgiveness. It will resonate with anyone who is struggling with pain, grief and loneliness and gives voice to those who need to know that life can be wondrous.
