a young mother's dreadful plight...her memoir of the peroid of her life when she lived in her car and fed her children ramon noodles on a daily basis. Her fears and decent into this hell and her heroic trip back. Her strength and determination is admirable. She rose above her problems, fighting her way out, doing it with honor and hard work, never expecting a hand out from others.

It reminds me in some ways of Nickel and Dimed.. except she was not doing it for research purposes.. she was in the situation for real. I think things like this happen more often than we know.. because we are afraid of what other people will think... or don't really know what to do. It was a very quick read.

An A W E S O M E read! Makes one think of what can happen when least expected. There are many families like her, moreso, single mothers with children that this is happening to all over America and it is heart-breaking. I won't spoil the ending but, several cheers from me!

This is a touching story. Although I did not agree with many of Michelle's decisions, especially regarding her children, I could sympathize with her, and could admire her courage. I'd recommend this book.
