Janet Bennett’s Newly-Released “The Island Girl Speaks…At Last!” Comes from the Archives of a Young Woman Whose Journey Began in Jamaica, and It Paints a Picture of Hope
MEADVILLE, Pa. (PRWEB) May 11, 2018 -- Janet Bennett’s “The Island Girl Speaks…At Last!” is a collection of poetry and other compositions that tell the story of a Jamaican girl’s journey through life. This book takes the reader from “Thanksgiving” to “Inspiration” and everything in between. Her voice, no longer muted, now declares with boldness the things that have been a weight on her heart for decades. No longer paralyzed, she moves to the beat of her own drums. Readers will laugh… cry … and sigh.
“So, my attempts at relationships had so far failed. I was not the kind of daughter, wife, or mother that God created me to be. Naturally, my life felt empty and pointless. Can you therefore imagine the difference it made when I discovered who Jesus really was and what He did for me? I had heard about Him all my life, but this was different. It finally hit home that God was not just some great dictator in the sky; He is my loving Heavenly Father, and Jesus is my Savior, Brother, Friend!” –Janet Bennett
“The Island Girl Speaks…At Last!” is a journey that strips away the camouflage with which this young woman covered herself throughout the years. Like Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, the Island Girl felt it necessary to cover herself, because she was ashamed of her “nakedness.” Nevertheless, this book is a picture of hope. Approach it with an open mind and you may discover what your soul truly needs.
Janet Bennett is a Jamaican by birth, but now a naturalized American citizen living in Lithonia, Georgia with her husband, David. She works as an administrative assistant in a medical practice by day. By night, she writes. She is an avid reader, and a student of the Word. Janet is the youngest of Cleveland and Norma Crawford’s four children. Her daughter, Kimberley, and grandsons, Mario and Mason, are near and dear to her heart.
