A Different Beautiful

PRAISE FOR A DIFFERENT BEAUTIFUL “I was touched and inspired by reading this story of how one family is turning what some would see as ‘difficult’ into something so positive and beautiful. No matter where you’re at in life, this book will encourage you to look for the beauty in every situation.” –Crystal Paine, Founder, MoneySavingMom.com and New York Times Bestselling Author, Say Goodbye to Survival Mode “The most dazzling beauty in this world is not found on magazine covers, TV commercials, or fashion runways as promised by our media. Uplifting and faith-filled, Courtney Westlake’s A Different Beautiful reaffirms, in a society that prioritizes perfection, just how wonderful different can be.” —LeAnn Thieman, CSP, CPAE Speaker Hall of Fame, and Author, Chicken Soup for the Soul: a Book of Miracles and Chicken Soup for the Soul: Answered Prayers “In a world determined to ease or eliminate all evidence of ‘different,’ Courtney Westlake speaks a powerful word. It’s not our sameness that makes us beautiful, but our differences. Rather than resenting the unexpected and reeling from the resulting disappointment, you and I can learn to find beauty in the most unexpected—and incredible— places. The reward? A truly beautiful life.” —Michele Cushatt, Author, Undone: A Story of Making Peace with an Unexpected Life “In A Different Beautiful, Courtney captivated me with her ability to define beauty in a countercultural way. Through Brenna’s story, you get to peek inside this family’s great journey of transformation, courage, and hope. Courtney has a gift for sharing real struggle, always entangled with hope and a higher perspective. It’s a must-read for all families looking to see the beauty from the eye of the Creator.” —Courtney DeFeo, Author, In This House, We Will Giggle
