Why Tell My Story?



Out of the Shadows-  Hope Where There Was None  tells the story of an immigrant girl from Mexico who never lost hope as she endured bullying, child abuse, and the challenges of learning a new language after her arrival in the United States.  It's my story, and I share it to help you find hope.

“Too often childhood is a series of dark corridors we’d rather leave unlit.  Here, Reed walks them with courage, flickering a light that reveals and, remarkably, suffuses all it finds with tenderness and hope.  This honest, graceful memoir of growing up and overcoming challenges all too common in American homes is organized with chapters as perfect springboards for classroom discussion in any middle or high school classroom. Beautifully done.”
