The Hatwearer's Lesson

"For author Yolanda Joe, writing from the heart about the soul is what makes a good story great. The Hatwearer's Lesson is a heartwarming and inspirational novel that tells the story of one woman's loving relationship with her maternal grandmother...

This concept works well and ultimately makes for entertaining, yet thought-provoking reading."
