"Portraying this narrative requires immense courage; I can hardly comprehend the bravery needed to live through and feel it firsthand. ""Living in Freedom! Teaching and Volunteering, Great Life Experiences"" is a profoundly impactful book, brimming with lessons and woven with both pain and joy. Nery Barnet Kircher, a musician and poet, epitomizes resilience, and this book serves as a testament to her unyielding spirit. However, courage isn't without its sacrifices; here, we glimpse the heart of the American Dream and the challenging path it entails, illustrating how courage is both forged and wielded. -Ann Collins, Book Reviewer"
