Kendra is completely honest about how hard it is to raise a child and how many sacrifices are involved.

Kendra is stunning and very honest. I read Kendra several months ago and immediately put it in the hand of my co-booksellers -- I work at a large indie in Seattle and best of all I've put Kendra and Tyrell into the hands of teachers and teens.
