Jennifer Petrone has a wonderfully unique way of inspiring us by examining her own life through the eyes of an observer, sprinkling in some optimism and encouragement with an added touch of universal spirituality...giving us an always uplifting view into life's everyday challenges. In this book "The Sun Is Shining" she takes an in depth look at the much misunderstood and often maligned subject of Gender Identity here in the United States and around the world, seeking to demystify and alleviate the fear felt by so many...educating us through her own observations as she transitions into the woman she was always meant to be. Very insightful, compassionately written and very timely as this topic has long been considered "taboo" and is now at the forefront of all worldwide human rights organizations.
