Brighter By the Day by Robin Roberts  240 pages

Such an uplifting, highly motivating book.  Robin Roberts, co-anchor of Good Morning, America, tells her story in such a delightful positively motivational way that you would just like to be around her to scoop up some of that sunshine.  She offers family sayings that take you back to your own childhood and all the great family members who offered up homespun wisdom.   She shares stories on surviving cancer twice, the ups and downs of her 20+ years with her wife and how she got into covering sports then later news then her anchor position on Good Morning, America.   The love she has for God, and for her wife, Amber, her family both living and those who have gone home to glory and her gig on GMA come through as she talks about a multitude of personal experiences.   This is such a bouncy, feel good book all brought about by the lovely person who is Robin Roberts.   I recommend her story to middle schoolers on up.   She imparts wisdom and joy throughout the book with grace and panache.
