Pieces of Sky: a memoir

Pieces of Sky: a memoir is a starkly honest story of one brave little girl's journey of survival and triumph. From the hot, dusty plains of Oklahoma to the dangerous streets of Los Angeles to the rural Big Bear mountains, Noelle spends her childhood longing for a place to call home. Her mother is a narcissist, an aspiring singer who wears feather boas while the children go hungry and whose suitors come and go like the wild Midwestern winds. Just when Noelle finally makes a new friend or settles into her classes at school, her mother's dysfunctional whims whisk the family away to another trailer park or filthy roach motel. In the midst of abuse, neglect, abandonment and heartbreak, Noelle must summon the courage and creativity to face adversity on her own. And it is this courage that will one day lead her into the office of Dr. Randall, where she will face what could be her biggest battle yetthe one to set her heart free.
Pieces of Sky: a memoir is more than just another tragic story. It is a tale of true redemption from the inside out; a reminder that even in life's bleakest circumstances, there is always a glimmer of hope. Told with touching humor and audacity, it will capture even the most skeptical reader's heart and leave them rooting for Noelle Cablay from beginning to end.
