출판사 설명
The definitive account of Whitney Houston’s astonishing life, ground-breaking career, and tragic death — complete with never-before-seen photographs — from the only one who truly knows the story behind the headlines: her mother, Cissy Houston.
Cissy has said little publicly about Whitney’s heart-breaking death. Now, for the first time, she opens up and shares the unbelievable story of her daughter’s life, as well as her own, and addresses Whitney’s brightest and darkest moments.
A legendary Grammy Award–winning gospel singer in her own right, Cissy Houston shows how the lessons from her own musical journey helped to shape Whitney’s career — from teaching Whitney to use her voice, to keeping her level-headed throughout her meteoric rise to fame.
With candor and respect, she sets the record straight about Whitney, exploring both her turbulent marriage and her misunderstood struggles with drug abuse. Cissy goes behind the tabloid headlines to show fans around the world the true, human side of a strong, successful — yet flawed — musical icon who died much too young.

I read this in a day and a half..I'm a huge Whitney fan and cried when she died. I couldn't imagine what her family is going through and with this book you can.. You get a sense of the woman and the human being behind that amazing voice..reading this you feel like you're right there with them..taking the journey with Mrs.Houston since she was a kid til Whitney's birth and her rise to fame. I didn't want it to end even though I knew the sad outcome. In the end,all Whitney wanted to be was loved and accepted like all of us.. And I'm glad she was able to see and know that while alive.Thank you Mrs. Houston for writing this book and with the honesty with which was written. It's a gift for us fans and like you, we'll always love Nippy.
