On September 11, 1961, Terry Jennings landed in the United States with her family after a short flight from Cuba. Their only possessions were $50 and one suitcase each. Her family, including her father, who had been jailed during the Bay of Pigs invasion, was now in a free country.
On September 12, Terry found herself enrolled in seventh grade, drowning in a sea of English she didn’t understand.
Today, Terri has written over 16 books and joins me to share her story.
