"Jessica’s life has had no shortage of concrete. A child of the foster care system. Abused. Mentally delayed. Autistic. Transgender. In and out of the criminal justice system. Homeless for over 15 years. Lots and lots of concrete. But Jessica is a dandelion.
Like the homeless, many people view dandelions as weeds with no value. But Jessica knows that a dandelion is a flower that can bloom in the harshest of environments.
Growing Through Concrete is Jessica’s story. It’s part autobiography, part poetry. Because of Jessica’s severe dyslexia, she can barely read or write so this book was written entirely by Voice to Text on her iPad. It is about the human experience – pain, loneliness, longing, love, faith, and redemption."
