Are you effing kidding me?????
"A Memoir of Soul, Song and the Power of Perseverance" He is only 18 for christ sake he barely stopped watching Tele tubbies.
my book should arrive today and I'm soooo excited! David is an old soul and very wise beyond his 19 years. I expect to be motivated and charmed. I can't wait to read it!
Can't wait until I have David's book in my hands. Comes out soon here in Canada. So looking forward to reading it! Age has nothing to do with sharing your heart, soul, wisdom and inspiration with others. At 19 yrs old, David has more integrity, character, compassion and understanding than many people twice his age. I am sure it will inspire many and will be a delight to read. I have heard nothing but good things from those who have read it. David is a remarkable artist and an amazing young man.
Mikey - He's 19. It's a memoir of his childhood, just like someone could write a memoir about a trip abroad or about any event or passage of time. A memoir is memories.
David was approached by the publisher and asked to write the book. David thought he was too young, too slow a writer, wouldn't have enough to say. But he decided to accept the challenge. David has said he thought his fans would like it and that if it encouraged just one person to overcome their own issues to pursue their dreams, then it was worth it.
It's a very nice book. I just finished reading it and also sending off a gift copy. :)
