Susan Boyle Dreams Can Come True

' My advice to those who dare to dream is don't give up. If I can do it, anyone else can too .' On 11 April 2009, forty-eight-year-old spinster Susan Magdalane Boyle stepped out on to the stage of Britain's Got Talent to jeers and sniggers. As she announced she was going to sing 'I Dreamed a Dream', the judges Simon Caldwell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan didn't bother to hide their amusement. One minute later, they, and very soon the world, were giving Susan a standing ovation. She had the voice of an angel and her story was to become a modern-day fairytale, a dream come true. In this book, the first to explore Susan's amazing rags-to-riches story, we follow her from her humble West Lothian background to topping the charts and performing for millions worldwide on TV. Whether it was bullying or nearly not entering Britain's Got Talent because 'it was a young person's game', when faced with the toughest challenges, Susan never gave up. The memory of her mother inspired her to give her dream one last chance . . .
