"Real Roatan is a riveting true story about an island orphan who overcomes heartbreaking challenges to become a professional soccer player. A strong emotional tug draws readers in and holds them as they cheer for a good-hearted hero with unhealed wounds. The poignant ending is as surprising to the reader as it was to the author." --Nancy K. Allen, Author of 48 Books"This fascinating memoir put me on a roller coaster of emotions from the fascinating and touching beginning to the shocking ending. If Wilson learns from his mistakes and grows in his spiritual journey, his dreams will come true." --Arlene Cooper, Indiana Teacher "This is the kind of book you can't put down. The up close and personal picture of poverty touched my heart, and I learned a lot about Roatan's culture. I found Wilson's brutally honest story compelling and its cautionary tale important. I have been a fan of Edwina Doyle Willis's writing for thirty years, and she doesn't disappoint." --Angela Arent, Former Ohio State Soccer PlayerEdwina Doyle Willis, known by islanders as Miss Winnie, lived on Roatan and served as English Director of the Roatan Bilingual School. Her memoir, Midlife Monkeylala, a treasure trove of fascinating history, culture, and colorful characters, is a must read. Willis is a Kentuckian who now lives in North Carolina.
