The Lioness in me

The Author of this book found herself a mum in her very early teens. She was young, immature, naïve and basically clueless as to the consequences of having teenage sex. Clueless as to motherhood. And clueless as to life in general. In this book she narrates her journey and experiences from the moment that she literally stumbled onto the discovery that she was pregnant at 13 years of age. She is so real and authentic in her narration of this season of her life and you can feel her passion and heart to help other teen moms coming off through the pages. Chiyedza has turned what could easily have been a disastrous life with no hope nor future for her and her children into a positive that shines a light for others to follow. She is unashamed in speaking of her struggles in order that others may learn from it. She is genuine and real, which is exactly what is needed in tackling such a real and now issue. Young girls are becoming sexually active at much younger ages and they need to be aware of the lifetime consequences to their health, family and social lives. As a qualified nurse, counsellor and now author, Chiyedza is strategically positioned to teach, mentor and help young people to be aware of these real life issues. She gives a huge dollop dose of Reality. Chiyedza is a strong and determined woman who has experienced life's highs and lows and overcome most challenges thrown at her. What should have killed her has made her stronger. She is a devout Christian whose faith has kept her standing through the storms and fiery darts. (Foreword by Vonayi Nyamazana)
