Book Review: Love Letters from the Edge

Book reviews by Katie. M. Reid

When I went to the ACW Conference in June, I was incredibly blessed to reconnect with Shelly Beach and to meet her dear friend and co-author, Wanda Sanchez. I student taught under Shelly in college and am delighted to be mentored by her again, not in teaching English this time, but in writing a book.

Shelly is a rich blessing in my life and I am deeply grateful for her expertise and support as I write. These women are a dynamic team. Together they address issues of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and offer real hope for those that are hurting. Visit their PTSD Perspectives site for a plethora of resources that can help. You can also access more information about this, and other topics, on Positive Psychology.
