At age five, Donny Osmond first sang his way into North Americas heart. By the time he was a teenager, he had four separate careers successfully underway, as a solo artist, as a member of the Osmond Brothers, as part of a singing duo with his sister, Marie, and as the co-host of a highly successful network television variety show. But by the early 80s, public perception had changed, and Donny discovered that, thanks to his squeaky-clean image, his very name had become poison. In this inspiring autobiography, Donny tells what it is like to survive the ups and downs of the entertainment business while trying to keep his faith, dignity, and sense of humor intact. He recalls memories of his experiences with a variety of celebrities, from Groucho Marx and Lucille Ball to Michael Jackson and Howard Stern. He shares how he finally achieved resolution through marriage, fatherhood, perseverance, and self-acceptance. And he recounts the long and difficult road leading to a renewed recording career, nearly two thousand triumphant performances in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and a new nationally syndicated talk show. The millions of people who watched Donny grow up are now embracing the man whose life and career exemplify the classic values that so many now share.

In this new medium, Merrill Osmond continues to entertain us through real-life journal excerpts and fascinating life stories set against a show business backdrop. But more than a melody of family and fame, he blends into this work the harmony of his faith. Just when we feel alone or unprepared on this stage of life, here are new tunes and steps to motivate and inspire. The middle man in this famous family not only presents us with a backstage pass into his unusual life, but beckons us open-armed into his unusual heart, offering the best reason of all to keep singing and dancing. To followers of Christ and truth-seekers everywhere, here is a gift, as down-to-earth as a book about God can be. Book jacket.
