One of Eleven, a true story about finding your way

One of Eleven is a raw, honest, and hilarious memoir about growing up as one of eleven children in a poor, Catholic family in the middle of nowhere Kansas. Written by “Jerra Donal,” the ninth, very different and “probably adopted” child, it is an entertaining & poignant coming of age story that vividly captures Jerry Forristal’s unique search for identity & purpose, and his intriguing & varied relationships with his parents, ten brothers and sisters, and best friends.

While at its core a classic rags to riches story in which Forristal escapes poverty & receives a full-ride scholarship to Duke, it is also an inspirational story of personal growth. We join him as he is emotionally transformed from a shy, unattractive teen to an outgoing, attractive young adult, and from a timid boy too scared to leave his hometown to a twenty-three year old with the confidence to move a thousand miles away, with no plans of ever returning to Kansas.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to eleven charities which support the lives and dreams of poor children in the U.S.
