Terena Scott will be at Mendocino Book Company on Thursday February 19, at 5:30, to launch her memoir Raising Rhia: A Mother's Fight for a Joyful Life

Terena is a writer, teacher, advocate, and mother. Her memoir, Raising Rhia, is a deeply personal story about raising her daughter, who was born with multiple disabilities, in a world that wasn’t built for her.

This book is for anyone who’s ever fought for someone they love. It’s for the weary, the brave, the brokenhearted, and the wildly hopeful.
