{"product_id":"sixth-of-twelve-a-memoir","title":"Sixth of Twelve: A Memoir","description":"Sixth Of Twelve is about Colette's struggle to choose a different path in life than the one she was taught she must follow. Her near-death experience in childbirth—and the actual death of her baby—challenges the family values she learned in childhood. Raised in a Catholic family of twelve children during the 1940's and early 1950's in a predominantly Polish\/German neighborhood on the east side of Detroit, she knows from the time she is a young child that her purpose in life is to marry, have as many children as God gives her, be a good wife and mother, and dedicate her life to her family. This is Colette’s unforgettable story about growing up the sixth of twelve children in a socially conservative era where gender roles were traditional and clearly defined. Graced with a proud, willful mother and the determination to overcome poverty and tragedy, Colette has the character and strength to survive, love, and ultimately succeed. Her story will warm your heart, bring you to the brink of tears, and finally leave you smiling.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0997116900\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0997116900.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Dywasuk, Mrs. Colette Taube\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
