"A gripping account of triumph over adversity that may inspire you to 'dream an impossible dream!'” -Martha Quinn, original MTV VJ, host of the Martha Quinn Morning Show on iHeart80s @ 103.7, San Francisco
"Everyone who loves great literature should read this heart wrenching memoir." - Sean McNamara: Director, Producer: Soul Surfer, The Miracle Season, Spare Parts, Reagan
Spending the night in Juvie wasn't the worst thing to happen to seven year old Teresa that summer. When her much-anticipated cross-country vacation turns to abduction, Teresa is forced to care for her mother, sister and twin brothers. Homeless, abused, and afraid in the slums of San Francisco's Tenderloin district, Teresa finds joy in her adventures while fantasizing of a better life. Keeping this dream alive throughout her childhood is what drives her to end the cycle of abuse and poverty.
