About the Book

Every now and then at random - or so it seems, a person is singled out for an event or a series of events forever altering them. A road taken or not; a marriage, children, divorce - an unfortunate error in judgment - or, fortunate when in hindsight. However, it is usually years later before one can actually see the destruction that was wrought - had a plan - a blessing in disguise of sorts; a redirection of one's very own course in life - a ship that turned over, almost drowning everyone in it- but then, suddenly righting itself; the boat drifting until finding its way to a new home and a new life - one utterly unplanned and unimaginable - while in the siege. The storm that raged replaced with a dawning of inspiration, an awakening that "now I get it" and a reveling in the celebration of one's freedom, turn of events and new creation. A woman's right to be herself; dance to her own rhythms. A different beat that is hers alone; another chance at a life free from the shackles of someone else's dreams and agendas. This is the story of that woman: A single mother of four, one of whom is mentally ill and autistic, learns how to live an authentic life and be true to herself, no matter how hard the journey, and create joy and peace in spite of the storms that nearly took her and her family under.
About the Author: Leslie Williams Cappiello holds a PhD., two master's degrees, and is currently working on a master's in creative writing. She is a lifelong learner and always striving to live an authentic life filled with laughter and love. Leslie is the recipient of several teaching awards for excellence in the classroom, as well as winning first place in her first writing competition for the "The Magic of the Monkeys," the title of this novel. She lives in Frisco with her two sons, two dogs, and one very fat cat. She teaches literature at an international baccalaureate high school and writing at the local community college. You can find her on her website and blog at www.itsajunglelife.com, or on the beach in the summer hanging out with her boys, daughter, and of course, her dogs.
