This is a powerful transformative book about not giving up, finding yourself and spreading your wings. I could not put down Emerging Butterfly, Constance’s heartbreaking childhood did not hold her down and we need more stories told like this because WE ARE NOT ALONE!

Wow just wow. What a great book. It was both funny and thoughtful in equal measure. Just and amazing piece of writing.
I throughly enjoyed this book and urge you to pick it up and read it.
Constance takes you on her journey and like her you don’t know which way things are going to go. So hold on tight and enjoy the ride.
Thank you to both NetGalley and publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this fantastic book in exchange for my review

This book was received as an ARC from Beautiful Sky Publishing in exchange for an honest review. Opinions and thoughts expressed in this review are completely my own.

Constance Grays Jones was born in California and raised to be a dreamer but when a tragic accident occurred almost fatal, Constance knew her life will never be the same. Constance reveals her secrets to saying positive ND discovered sunshine at the end of the tunnel even on the grayest of days . She still remains positive throughout her life and has become one of America's treasured influencers. I was in tears throughout this entire story and I know a lot of people will learn at least a thing or two from reading this book. I know our community will love it hopefully as much as I do.

We will consider adding this title to our Biography collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.

If you want to answer the life question is it nature or nurture that moulds the child, read Emerging Butterfly and decide for yourself. A powerful and moving narrative that is told without drama but written in such a way you cannot help but be moved.

Yes I cried, as you read you will probably know exactly where. Like most of us she made decisions she regretted, she also had her choices taken away and decisions made for her but through it all what made her who she was shone through.

With thanks to #NetGalley and Beautiful Sky Publishing for the ARC.
