Features: This is a book that condenses the essence of life, a book filled with profound maternal love, and even more so, a book that holds heartfelt hopes for children in the midst of their growth: A laid-off worker facing hardships, a poor single mother, and the ordinary mother of a 16-year-old child studying piano in Eastern Europe. To ensure her children do not lose their way amidst the distractions of young life, to remain self-reliant and undeterred by the allure of the world, she worked tirelessly while using the meager earnings from selling her labor to read newspapers and magazines. She carefully selected the best of these, and year after year, she sent her child regular "Letters Every Monday." These spiritual nourishments, marked with "Words from a Mother's Heart," helped her child grow up far from home. Years passed, and the once teenage student became a "Piano Genius from China," hailed by the Chinese embassy as one of the "Outstanding Chinese Students."
