The book portrays a literal rugs-to-riches story of a young girl who went from being a child-slave, to a successful professional. Told from a first person viewpoint, it takes the reader on an emotional and at times humorous journey, from the plains of rural Zimbabwe, to the built up cities of the United Kingdom.

The author's aim is to assist in changing the lives of those who have gone through one difficulty or another. She aims to inspire the reader to transform their life by painting a personal picture of her own struggles and sufferings, from childhood through to adulthood. Having been the victim of physical and mental abuse, she was also deprived of education--a basic human right which every child should be entitled to. She also faced starvation, poverty, rejection, sickness and disease and also what constituted to child slavery. She aims to use her not-so-pleasant upbringing to help change the lives of others who have and are going through the exact or similar circumstances to show that in the midst of suffering, one can rise up and overcome all odds and become someone and something, hence the title of the book.
