From the time she was born with Cerebral Palsy, Jean Starnes has used her humor, intelligence and determination to meet many challenges. Unable to walk, she attained two master degrees and worked forty years as a teacher and a Psychological Associate with children and adults who had various handicaps. She, as a single parent, adopted and raised a son. Jean has written four books. The first, Hell on Wheels, was an autobiography. The others, including this one, are mostly collections of her columns written for the Midland Reporter-Telegram Newspaper. Jean's unique sense of humor shines through her books which will appeal to the handicapped and the able-bodied alike.
