Three Little Words: A Memoir Audiobook

" This book was amazing. one of my favorites. It was a very easy read. True story about a girl's experience with foster care. If this stuff interests you or you work in the helping feild, you definately need to read this book. "

" An amazing story of survival within the foster care system we have in the USA. It became a page-turner as I wanted to know how she managed. "

" Very good, sad, touching, and true story!! "

" I must be honest and say I went into this book with a preconceived view of it. I thought it was going to be a "I had a horrible youth in foster homes but now that I was adopted everything turned out alright." And it was that way. Yes her story was touching and sad, and one of her foster homes was just horrible. But she over came it after being adopted. A few things through her story seamed a little far fetched, but she included picture proof at the end. She had won a lot of awards, met with JK Rowling, invited to a few presidential dinners, ect. She became an "Erin Brokovich" towards the end talking about her court trials against her foster parents The Mosses and her state trail against the state foster system. It was an interesting look inside the life of someone who lived for 10 years in the foster system. "

" Difficult and heart wrenching but sheds light on the foster care system. "

" As a mother, I really connected to the book. It really depicts foster care today, both the positive and negative. "

" Very emotion book "

" A really interesting book, very useful for foster parents, giving insight into the system from a child's point of view. "

" WOW. I am very spoiled compared to this woman. "

" A fantastic, and sometimes horrifying, look inside the foster care system from a kid who was in it. It's a rare point of view, and it's in a voice that needs to be heard in this society. "

" As a lover of memoirs, I have to say that this one is quite amazing. Although it is also rather depressing. But throughout the book you see how much Ashley Rhodes-Courter grows up from a struggling foster child to being a successful young woman. "

" I almost put this book down after the first few chapters, but I'm glad I stuck with it. The dry writing irked me at first, but I found myself attached the story by the end (and I think the writing improved as it went along). I think this is one my 9th graders will really enjoy and relate to. "

" OK. Good for my kids who salivate over Dave Pelzer's books. "

" I recommended this to the kids because it's similar to A Child Called It (which they are all obsessed with), but doesn't focus so much on child abuse. Fantastic memoir. "

" Very interesting memoir! It's very tragic what happens in her childhood. "

" Wow. I highly recommend this touching book for teens and adults. "

" Ashley voice speaks so loudly and true of all kids who are part of the "system" and who feel as if NOONE cares for them. SPECTACULAR read ... but yes, you will cry! "

" This was a wonderfully written book. It was so realistic, because it is real. It's about a young girl, who's mother is deemed unfit to care for her. So she's put into foster care. The book is about her foster care experience and her relationship with her brother. "

" Doesnt seem right for this to happen in America. Enjoyed this book. "
