The book deals with a young Dave, growing up in Saint Lucia and its capital city Castries. His immense popularity as a teenage singing heartthrob with the Tru Tones band in the late 60s and the many challenges of an only child under the supervision of his grandmother, a seamstress, as his mother had migrated to England on the heels of his father David Z to end their sham marriage. Daves broadcast skills are undoubtedly part of his biographical make-up. His insight into the Tourism Industry where he was employed for 12 years and his personal experiences in media, especially after the establishment of DSP, his award winning PR, advertising and Video Production Company. The Chapters about confronting satanic forces and the embrace of the calypso artform by Saint Lucians are completely engrossing. My story, Your Voice includes interviews with former Governor General, Dame Pearlette Louisy, former Prime Ministers, Sir John Compton and Dr. Kenny D. Anthony and Prime Minister, Allen M. Chastanet. The book also features George Odlum, who is credited for the political education of thousands of Saint Lucians. Originally, the author had thought of the title My Story, My Voice, but explains, wherever I go, people always comment on my Voice and how it has impacted them over the years. So, in a sense, I always acknowledge the Voice as not really my own but a God given gift to be shared with Saint Lucia and all its people.

Everyone loves superheroes. Who doesn't? They're super! Some of them can fly. Some are strong. Some can become invisible. And some wear capes. But the thing that really makes them super is that they help people and change the world. And guess what? You have a superpower inside you. Your VOICE is your superpower. And because of a thing called freedom of speech, with that voice, you can express yourself, you can help people, and you can change the world. Now, more than ever, teaching children the value of free speech is essential to raising smart, engaged citizens. Knowing the value of free speech allows children to courageously share what they think and believe, whether it’s with their family, friends, or their elected officials. Learning about the value of free speech also teaches children the importance of being good listeners, even if it means listening to points of view that differ from their own. In Your Voice is Your Superpower, father-daughter duo Jessica and Sandy Bohrer team up to teach children the importance of free speech and why it is essential for maintaining a functioning democracy. Your Voice is Your Superpower provides the perfect stepping-stone for parents looking to teach their children more about their First Amendment rights in an easy, appealing way. This fun, colorful book proves that the first step to raising engaged, courageous children–and in turn, raising a new generation of superheroes–starts at home. A portion of proceeds will be donated to the Committee to Protect Journalists. "The First Amendment gives us superpowers! What a terrific way to help kids understand why they are free to say and write what they think. This engaging story is perfect for young readers and maybe a few parents, too." --Kathleen Carroll, Chair of the Board of the Committee to Protect Journalists
