HELL ON WHEELS

About the Book

From the time she was born with Cerebral Palsy, Jean Starnes used her humor, determination and intelligence to meet many challenges. Hell on Wheels begins with her early years in a small West Texas town where her family had to insist the school system accept its responsibility to educate her. Jean's competitive, persistent nature served her well, as she attained two masters degrees, became a teacher and a Psychological Associate and adopted a son who is minimally handicapped.

Hell on Wheels inspires, entertains and educates everyone. Because of its honesty and glimpses into unexpected intimate moments, Jean's book will appeal to the handicapped and the able-bodied alike.
