Charleston author Lesia Hammonds Dunn will hold a book signing on copies of her book, “Life Is But a Dream, on Jan. 12, 1 to 3 p.m., at Jittery Joe’s Coffee, 1690 25th St. N.W.

What is a dream? It is not necessarily wishful thinking or hoping for a better tomorrow; it is about living your best life now. It's the expression of your heart, mind, body, and soul, according to Dunn.

The truth that life is but a dream, Dunn said, was accomplished through Dunn's son, Erwin.

“Life Is but a Dream” is an inspiring and breathtaking chronological biography of Erwin's battle with acute lymphocytic leukemia from his diagnosis at 10 months old to his death at age 15.

Through Dunn's firsthand account, you will follow the family and witness Erwin fight the good fight of faith, never giving up on his Creator throughout his affliction.

In “Life Is but a Dream,” witness how family members came together and never lost their faith in the Lord throughout the trials and tribulations of Erwin's illness.
