    About this ebook

    Veronica's Diary II—Braving a New World is the inspirational sequel to Veronica's Diary—The Journey of Innocence. It begins by introducing Veronica, a Portuguese immigrant, who just arrived in the US via a prearranged marriage to her cousin. Her honest and sometimes humorous diary entries reflect a young girl who is literally growing up with her own children. After reading Veronica’s Diary II the reader walks away with the understanding that we all can become who we really want to be, regardless of life's disappointments and tribulations.
