TESTIMONIAL

 

“Healing Hurricane captured my attention, and I couldn't put it down. It almost feels wrong to say it's a terrific book because I experienced La Shawn’s pains, fears, and sorrows in it. What makes it a terrific read is that I also got to marvel at her fierceness, resilience, and triumphs. The book took me through an array of emotions while simultaneously educating me about those emotions. This book combines storytelling and teaching social-emotional skills that successfully demonstrate how attitude, more than aptitude, can determine altitude.”
