"In one moment, with one touching performance, Fantasia captured the hearts of millions of American Idol fans. Her powerful voice and independent style made her an overnight sensation. But life wasn't always sensational for Fantasia. At 17, she was just another girl who dropped out of high school, a baby on her hip. Her life and her plans for her future seemed to be going nowhere. But Fantasia was raised with the kind of faith that she needed to rethink her choices and redirect her life. In this book, she offers an emotional look at her rise to the top and the life-altering revelations she came to during her lowest moments along the way. With a spirit as strong as her voice, she speaks with heartfelt, humorous frankness about what it takes to get off the wrong path and onto the right one.--From publisher description."--From source other than the Library of Congress Fantasia, 1984- Singers United States Biography.
