Oddly Enough, This Combination Works...

Mothers and Daughters
National Book Award nominated poet and author Maya Angelou speaks to all women as her daughter in Letter to My Daughter, a graceful and powerful volume of stories, poetry, and point-of-view essays. Through the Storm is Lynne Spears' tell-all about stardom's underworld and her personal struggle to keep her famous children safe from legions of opportunists and manipulators.

Why pair one of American literature's greats with a pop non-fiction quickie? Because each has something to say about self-respect, humility, kindness, true friendship, and rejecting abuse. Angelou's book will just last longer...
