A Letter To My Mom is the third book in a series that celebrates the greatest gift you can give: a heartfelt letter written to someone you love. The “A Letter to My…” series is a collection of personally-crafted letters written by people from all walks of life, including celebrities, everyday people and kids. A Letter To My Mom is full of compelling letters and intimate portraits honoring the powerful, loving, complicated, one-of-a-kind relationships we all have with our mothers.
Each letter – whether written by celebrities, including Suze Orman, Mariel Hemingway, Shania Twain, will.i.am, and Christy Turlington, or everyday daughters and sons – speaks to the extraordinary bond between mother and child.
These are moms who made sure their children would never feel held back by disability; became roommates or business partners; put their own lives at risk to keep their kids out of harm’s way; inspired their children to start families of their own; or simply made the best cookies of all time.
Filled with deeply personal stories or love, loss, anger, silliness, hardship, and memories, A Letter to My Mom is a tribute to the women who shape us into the people we become.

I was just checking this out on Amazon and reading through the previews. There's a section of biographies at the end where it says Shania was "raised by adoptive parents Jerry and Sharon." Sharon is her actual mom. Thought that was weird and not a difficult fact to figure out with a little bit of research...
