The Overcomers: Christian Authors Who Conquered Learning Disabilities

My previous books were novels. This one is nonfiction and written by five published novelists - Ginny Aiken, Margaret Daley, Jane Myers Perrine, Ruth Scofield and me.

I am married to Charles Bull from Bishop, but I was born in Kingsville where we live today. My father and maternal grandfather were real for sure Texas cowboys, and I spent part of my early years on a cattle ranch in Kenedy County.

The Overcomers is divided into five parts, and each author tells how their learning problems affected them as children and teens. I had/have dyslexia, and for years, tried to keep it a secret.

In my part, I share what it was like to seem normal but be the dumbest kid in my elementary school, and if you can imagine pushing a 100-pound rock up a hill with nothing but a toothpick, you have some idea how difficult it is for a child with a learning problem to read or spell ten simple words. I also share experiences as a teen and young adult, living in Kenedy County on what is now the La Paloma Ranch. I also lived on the Santa Rosa, a bigger ranch.

The above photo was taken on the Santa Rosa Ranch in around 1948, and I’m the 12-year-old girl on the left.

Here is a photo of my late parents, Sam and Billee Noble, who lived on both ranches.

The next photo is of my grandfather, Seth Woods, in a lineup with the ranch cowboys. He is the cowboy to the left of the man on the wagon, and the child is my late uncle, Mack Woods. Seth Woods ran the Santa Rosa Ranch in Kenedy County for almost forty years. Mack Woods was once president of Polled Santa Gertrudis Breeders Association.

To find The Overcomers and my other books at Amazon, write Molly Noble Bull in the search slot. You will need to scroll down to find The Overcomers. But you can't miss it with that bright yellow cover.

The Overcomers is available as a Kindle e-book for $3.99, but a printed copy will also be available soon in time for the holidays.
