Book Cover & Preview Text
Hello, my name is Pearlie. I was named after my Grandma Pearl. I am sure this is because I might look like her or even have her ways. I really do not know the real reason. All I know is, I love my name. I am so happy to be her namesake. When she spoke, I listened. She taught me the “Lord’s Prayer.” I remembered every word she said. -------------------------------------------------------------- At first, I did not believe in myself. Then things in my life began to happen. Slowly but surely, I had a change of mind. Sometimes I would daydream and then I would dream when I was fast asleep. Whatever I started out to do – would come to life because I BELIEVED it would happen. All things are possible – if you only believe!
