You must mind the one taking care of you, but she's not your mama." <i>Ashley Rhodes-Courter</i> spent nine years of her life in fourteen different foster homes, living by those words. As her mother spirals out of control, Ashley is left clinging to an unpredictable, dissolving relationship, all the while getting pulled deeper and deeper into the foster care system. Painful memories of being taken away from her home quickly become consumed by real-life horrors, where Ashley is juggled between caseworkers, shuffled from school to school, and forced to endure manipulative,humiliating treatment from a very abusive foster family. In this inspiring, unforgettable memoir, Ashley finds the courage to succeed - and in doing so, discovers the power of her own voice. 1926524 8 1 2008 Three Little Words: A Memoir total:647|5:210|4:251|3:149|2:34|1:3| 647 2572 1165 226 5 5 false false Fri May 30 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri May 30 12:08:06 -0700 2008 Fri May 30 12:41:18 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 4 false false Wed May 28 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu May 29 17:56:49 -0700 2008 Thu May 29 17:56:49 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 4 false false Wed Feb 27 13:51:13 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 27 13:53:34 -0800 2008
