Lasting Impressions

It has been over a year since I read this book while I was living in Puerto Rico, but the deep impressions it made remain. Even now I feel like I would love to sit and just listen to the authoress in person as she tells more of her story. That is exactly how I predict you will feel as you read this account from her heart and you share her laughter and her tears. Although now I live in Mexico, I realize that this true story of a young girl apparently forsaken by her own country and forced to move to another is universal in it's lesson of love and pride of your roots and how justice can prevail if we never give up!Thank you Ms. Jacobs and God Bless You Forever, Bill
