The Normal Course in Reading: Fourth Reader, the Wonderful Things Around Us (1895)

Born with a facial paralysis, raised in the town of Clarksburg, West Virginia, in the a40s and a50s, this writer takes a look back into her childhood, resurrecting old fears, challenging herself to face them head on, by putting them into print. Lost and wandering for many years, Ms. Rebrook Bagwell, although raised as a Methodist, dabbled in the occult as well as entered into a cult in the late a70s. Suicidal at times, desperate, and searching, she took the long way home, until she found a dwelling place in the Lord. This book gives hope to those who may have a handicap, those who feel lonely and are hurting, and points the way to He Who was always there: Jesus, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Savior of mankind and Savior of the author.
