I Am My Father-Mother's Daughter Cheryl Petersen

A fast moving story of growing up in a big family, working on the farm as cheap labor, and reclaiming our native happiness and sense of belonging. Wit and lessons-learned are used to show there may be one Truth, but there's no one human "right way" to discover and know truth, despite what the religious and scientific snobs will tell you. Readers will relate to Cheryl's ordinary life of plunging in and out of self-doubts and risk-taking, while finding the confidence to drive tractors and nurture family. A family that takes on a new look. Cheryl gives voice to our abilities to deepen and enlarge relationships, to experience mental and physical health, and to know when to say "no."
