Author of Best Selling Book and CBS Movie, Walking Through The Fire, Now Gives Us Tapestry: The Journey of Laurel Lee.

This summer, Lighthouse Trails Publishing will release Tapestry: The Journey of Laurel Lee, written and illustrated by best selling author, Laurel Lee. This is a long-awaited book for the nearly half million readers who purchased Ms. Lees previous books, two of which were Literary Guild selections. Tapestry is the life story of the rags to riches Cinderella of literature.

(PRWEB) April 19, 2004 --In the late seventies, twenty-nine-year-old Laurel Lee was diagnosed with Hodgkins Disease and told by doctors she would die. Her husband, unable to cope, abandoned her and three little children to fend for themselves. While Laurel fought desperately for her life, she kept a journal. That diary, sent to publishers by her doctors, became the best selling book and CBS movie, Walking Through The Fire. Contrary to her prognosis, Laurel didnt die. The success of that book and three sequels threw this young single mother into world-wide travel, adventure and challenge.
    
Through her battles with cancer, her dream for true love and the struggles of raising her children alone, Laurels heartbreaks and disappointments did not break her spirit. Rather, she lifted up and soared on a most unforgettable journey! With over 90 drawings done by Ms. Lee and over 60 photos, Tapestry weaves us through the decades of her life with a consistent language of grace, faith and a special lyrical intensity. For those who have read her previous books and for those who are just now introduced to her work, Tapestry: The Journey of Laurel Lee is an inspiring masterpiece.
    
Ms. Lees books have been endorsed by many, including Billy and Ruth Graham, P.L. Travers, (author of Mary Poppins), and authors Marjorie Holmes, Joyce Carol Oates and Betty Rollin. As a popular speaker, Laurel has been on numerous national talk shows, including NBCs Today Show. Her books have been translated and distributed in over fifty countries. She has been featured in People magazine and Family Circle, and her books have been reviewed by the New York Times on more than one occasion.
    
Ms. Lee currently lives on a Christmas tree farm near Canby, Oregon.
