    About this audiobook

    Mary Ricketson's book, Stutters, A Book of Hope, takes the reader through Ricketson's journey of fear and frustration. Every word is a struggle in school. "Children tease, mock, mimic...copy my dreaded stutter." Ricketson suffers shame "tension grows like weeds." This book pulls at your heart's strings. It's honest and fascinating. Her voice finally responds to practicing rhythm and she finds peace in the healing power of nature. Ricketson's courage and strength shine through the pages. This book is informative and an amazing story of a woman who overcomes the storms of life. Ricketson writes with candor about her son who also stutters. Families struggling in the shadows of stuttering will find hope in this collection of poems.
