Expression of Grief Enables You to "Go Out In Joy", April 20, 2003
This review is from: GO OUT IN JOY! (Reissue) (Mass Market Paperback)
I have been haunting used book stores for some time because someone borrowed my copy and never returned it. .... I discovered that I could keep on hand a supply of books, videos, etc., the use of which would almost always "trigger" grief reactions such as the kind of gut-wrenching sobs, quiet tears, or whatever it might take to remind me that I, too, had been given that beautiful treasure of simple, human vulnerability. And, once again, I could begin to operate in the midst of my humanness with Joy. Among the best of these resources (along with the movie, "Places in the Heart,")was Nina's little book, "Go Out in Joy." Why hadn't I thought to simply check with Amazon.Com? Well, now I have, and am submitting my order for this treasure-store of open human-to-human encounters ... and looking forward to that tiny lady-bug who could always be counted on to come along and melt me down again to who I was "meant" to be.

I LOVED this book as a child, December 7, 2001
This review is from: GO OUT IN JOY! (Reissue) (Mass Market Paperback)
As a child growing up with a disability, it was hard to find books that I could relate to. Go Out In Joy was the first book I read that showed the HUMAN side of disability; the first book to address MY disability and say "Yes, sometimes it sucks!" It helped me feel not so alone.
