In a form usually reserved for superheroes conquering universes, The Amazing "True" Story of a Teenage Single Mom tells of a young, poor mom with a simple dream: She wants to go to college. To get there, she'll need superhuman stamina, impossible good luck, a few miracles and, spurred by deep down love for her child, the ability to evade monsters, overcome abuse, and choose hope, faith, and the possibilities of her great expectations. These expectations take her from the not-so-warm embrace of her family, to a factory job, and then across the country with her daughter and a man who turns out to be a great deal less than her knight in shining armor. But that is not the end of the story. It is in the telling of this fable/memoir that we see the full scope of her courage.

Sheila Tofield tells her moving true story about being a single mother in 1950s Britain, in The Unmarried Mother. 'A searing, honest testimony' Lesley Pearse Sheila grew up in Rotherham, the daughter of an uncaring mother who made her believe she was useless, stupid and - most painfully of all - unlovable. As a young woman, her worst childhood fears were confirmed when her fiancé broke off their engagement without an explanation. Heartbroken and vulnerable, Sheila was easy prey to the worst type of man - a man who turned his back on her when she told him she was carrying his child. In Fifties Britain, an unmarried, pregnant girl received,not sympathy but censure and contempt. Shunned by most of her family, Sheila ended up in a Church of England home for unmarried mothers, with no apparent alternative than to give up her child for adoption. But when she held her newborn daughter in her arms for the first time, Sheila knew she had to do the unthinkable: bring up her baby on her own in a society that would condemn her for it. Sheila Tofield is a proud grandmother living in Chichester and The Unmarried Mother is her first book. Her touching story was picked up by Penguin when she entered the hugely successful life story competition with Saga Magazine.

When 19-year-old Jennifer Maggio found herself pregnant...for the fourth time...she was completely lost-lost in a tragedy wrought by years of sexual abuse, homelessness, and poverty. What she didn't know at the time was that she was the main character in a story that God would one day use to inspire, encourage, and challenge thousands of people just like her...and some whose stories were very different from hers. From that deep valley Jennifer rose to the summit of Corporate America-only to leave it all behind to minister to single moms. In The Church and the Single Mom Jennifer provides a road map for those who, like her, look out at the nearly 17 million single moms in the U.S. alone, many of whom are drowning in financial struggles, parenting woes, and emotional.
