KANSAS CITY, MO -
A metro author with more than 26 years of experience has written a book that'd described as a no-nonsense, easy-to-understand reference guide for parents looking for the right daycare provider. But FOX 4's Leslie Carto reports that there's more to her bio than just 'published author' as she faces charges in the death of a young girl in her care.

On Saturday, the family of the child who died while in Jeanette Lawrence's care released the following statement:
"The Patrick's feel this is Ms. Lawrence's way of turning a book that was negative publicty for her into a positive. By Ms. Lawrence dedicating the book to our daughter, we feel she is trying to get a sympathetic reaction from the public. Ms. Lawrence has not asked us permission to dedicate this book to our daughter, nor has she contacted us about the funds being donated to a charity we are in the process of starting."
