In Still Pedaling, Hayton takes the reader on a journey which encompasses the entirety of her life. It is a brutally open and honest look at her – from childhood until the almost-present day. And having finished the book, I find myself wishing that I had lived near her because she is an amazing woman with an unbreakable spirit and a gargantuan-sized zest for life. I think the two of us would have been fast friends…
Yes, Still Pedaling is an autobiography – yet, it reads as easily as one’s favorite fictional novel. Hayton writes with a friendly honesty and I can assure you that her life has been anything but boring or commonplace. Readers can chuckle over Hayton’s recollections of being a “precocious brat” and then follow along as she retraces her footsteps over the life-path she chose for herself.
To say that she’s a hard worker does not do her justice. To say that she’s picked herself up from nothing does not come close to explaining who she is. To say that she’s a fighter who has overcome the odds and adversities of her life is an understatement. She is, without a doubt, a shining beacon of hope to all – whether they have struggled with the same, or similar, challenges she has faced or not. And somehow, through it all, Hayton always managed to take time to help others – to make a difference in their lives. I’m certain that those whose lives she’s affected would readily agree that she’s an amazing woman…
In summary, Still Pedaling is a five-star ‘must read’ book. A true ‘feel good’ reminder that life is what you make of it – no matter what your personal situation.… (plus d'informations)
