An excerpt of this book:
Everybody has a story to tell. This is my story. I am one of the 19 children in our family. The exact date of my birth was not documented in the official birth registry or record. In my adolescent years, I made several attempts to obtain my actual date of birth from my relatives who stood in the place of my late parents, but none of them knew exactly the year I was born.
