About the Book

The book promises to be a strongly emotional and deeply compelling book that explores the beauty in dark skin. It is the author's refreshing and uplifting success book to enable dark skinned girls to be prepared for the joy and struggles of dealing with a society favoring fairer skin and still emerge a true winner. "Gifted and Black" is an extremely vivid, engaging and emotionally charged book written with the passionate voice of girls, with dark skin who are often made to feel inadequate. Released under the banner of Umayat Spiritual Education Publishing Company, Dr. Edonna's new book "Gifted and Black" has 30 pages, and is currently available in a paperback version for $20.00 from the official website www.GiftedAndBlack.info. The book is also available in Audio Book format for $9.99 and can be directly downloaded to any tablet, cell phone, laptop or computer and enjoyed by the readers. "Having grown up in Los Angeles myself, I know how harsh the world can be on a young girl with dark skin. Prejudice is not easy to comprehend and having worked with young women for years, I know from experience, almost each one of them yearns for a better support system but are let down, time and again, sometimes even by their own families who fail to understand their needs or provide the much needed emotional support during their formative years," says Rev. Dr. Edonna Alexandria, the author of the book. "The early years are the times when young women go through a myriad of emotions, making them vulnerable and liable to make mistakes they might later regret. My book will help these young women to take life head on, with full confidence, achieve their true potential and emerge a true winner!" Dr. Edonna's new book enables its readers to learn how to overcome the embarrassment of being bullied for their skin color and intelligence level. The story grips your heart and inspires you to accept and love you! The author really captures the pain, loneliness and, ups and downs of a body image disjointed with the populace and an ideal making dark skin a flaw rather than a beautiful feature to be proud of. The book is sure to boost the confidence of readers of all complexions who will begin to think critically and adopt a new empowered view of life. The author of this moving new book, Dr. Edonna is no stranger to unconventional methods of teaching. She has spent the past 21 years studying alternative techniques of educating and empowering youth. Her unique style allows her to harness the power of creative storytelling lessons combined with yoga and Double Dutch. Dr. Edonna's experience as a Health and Physical Education teacher provides fertile ground to put her expertise to work in some of the most challenging schools in America. "My book offers advice on a variety of sensitive topics in a practical, non-judgmental and objective manner. My book can help young girls understand what challenges life has in store for them, how to deal with them more effectively and with confidence so as to achieve their true potential, "added the author. Being considered as one of the most insightful books released on the subject in recent months, "Gifted and Black" by Rev. Dr. Edonna Alexandria is expected to emerge as a must-read for African girls throughout the Diaspora looking to build a meaningful foundation for a successful and happy life even if they are born with a dark complexioned skin. "What surprises me is so many dark-skinned young women are plagued by these issues and it saddens me to note, most of them are uninformed, either by their well meaning but inexperienced friends or family. This book, is very dear to my heart, and aimed to assist these youngsters through difficult times by helping them allay their fears and relieving their stress. As an author, I have taken a little liberty of weaving in some situations and circumstances which have been inspired by experiences of my own to make the narrative more engaging and realistic.
