I Grew Up Little : Finding Hope in a Big God
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


A rebellious teenager. A High School dropout. A bridge at seventeen and a mother at twenty. Soon she became a terrified victim of agoraphobia--a prisoner shackled by fear in her own home. Lost in the shadowy darkness of depression, there was little hope for this woman to reemerge into the light, much less excel at life.

But reemerge she did. Excel she has. And how! Standing five feet even, popular speaker, author and humorist Patsy Clairmont laughingly says, "I grew up a little". But this petitie body houses a gigantic, courageous heart. And this amazing little woman evokes gales of laughter and joy from hundreds of thousands of woman every year.

How did she do it? This delightfully written autobiography reveals Patsy's greatest struggles, her biggest failures, and the secret to her ultimate triumphs.

An incredible story of overwhelming fear meeting overcoming faith...this is a story of a little lady who found hope in a big God.
