Asher pays tribute to her mother's strength and determination to raise four successful children in the shadow of tragedy."--Goodreads. "This spellbinding memoir opens with a woman receiving shattering news that her husband and son have been in a terrible accident. In that instant, she becomes a widowed immigrant left to raise four children in a neighborhood consumed by poverty and violence. There is tragedy in this tale, but is not a tragedy. Her struggle awakens an inner strength that -- coupled with the rituals of radical mothering from her village -- leads to the family's salvation. The fierce parenting style she adopts ultimately produces an Oscar-nominated actor, an Oxford-educated CNN anchor, a medical doctor, and a successful entrepreneur. 'Where the children take us' is the story of a woman who battled genocide, famine, poverty, and crushing grief to rise from war-torn Africa to the streets of South London and , eventually, the drawing rooms of Buckingham Palace. It paints an unforgettable portrait of strength, tenacity, and love -- and it is a testimony to the sacrifices Nigerian parents make to raise successful children." --Jacket. Genre:  Memoirs.
