The God Of Anna

The story is a memoir told by Anna, about a year in her life that held serious struggles for her when she was about to turn 11 years old. This bright, introspective child lost her loving father and gradually came to realize that he had held their little family together with his charm and philosophical outlook. His strengths are lacking in Anna's mother, and she folds in her new responsibilities. This book is written to inspire, to show that no matter how ugly life can get, the power of life itself will support you. Anna is different from most other children because she learns to look inward for answers to life's difficulties-something that even as adults we have a hard time doing. Anna is guided and inspired by her great aunt. She discovers an inner world that will keep her safe if she will listen to it. The story is set along a grand Florida river in the 1960's with all the lush jungle backdrop that captivates the girl. This book isn't a common story of the abused child who waits to be rescued; Anna is a fierce and invincible force by the end of the book. The God of Anna will take you on an adventure through the world of possibilities and show you how thoughts and behavior create the life you live today. It will show how the answers to our deepest questions are found within our spirit, and how we can find glorious beauty in the dreariest situations.
