Wow!! Once I started reading this book I couldn't stop. The courage and vulnerability Shauna needed to put her life into words, well it left me speechless. Shauna did such an incredible job telling her story. I laughed, I cried and most of all when I was finished I felt a sense of hope, hope for others. If Shauna can go through what she went through in her life and turn out to be a beautiful and amazing person then others can too! Thank you Shauna for sharing your story and most of all thank you for being you and stepping outside your comfort zone to allow your light to shine. I know that anyone who reads this book will end up allowing their light to shine a bit brighter because of it! Xoxo

THE WEALTHY PEASANT is a poignant lesson on how to live life to the fullest. This book is for anyone who may think their difficult life experiences define who they are or believe the obstacles thrown their way gives them an excuse to give up and just watch the rest of their life pass them by. When Shauna was given lemons over and over again, she didn't just make lemonade, she added some vodka and made sure to life her life as the celebration that it is meant to be, each and every day. Thank you, Shauna, for being brave enough to share your beautiful story and for trusting me enough to be one of the first to read it.

"I was engaged with the story within a few pages. Shauna writes straight at you in a way that is comfortable yet with plenty of momentum. The story itself is eye-opening, a bit raw and very appealing. I want to know Shauna more. The calibre of the writing is excellent, not common for a grade nine graduate. Smooth, intriguing adventure in a true story. Rare!"
