About this listen

Taken by her mentally unstable mother, one girl forages her way to the top.

"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 heartwrenching memoir." (Sean McNamara, director, producer of 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.

A life story not only of survival but the amazing strength and courage...of depth and insight...of a truly special woman. My 2nd listen of Teresa's life story and I am sure not the last...thanks for sharing your heart.
