In this compelling collection of first-person stories, adults who
have made outstanding achievements in adult literacy were paired
with writers to tell of their transition to reading. These are
people who have had the courage to overcome the barrier of words to
break into a broader sense of themselves, to feel more empowered in
the world. Courageous, too, is the very sharing of these stories,
in which private moments are opened wide with the hope that others
will take the same steps. Whether confronting undiagnosed dyslexia,
a Canadian Tire store manager to ensure Christmas for a child,
written tests for the military, certification exams, or jumping
from an airplane, these people are heroes.
