The Slumber Party from Hell places hearts and souls on the often faceless, forgotten people behind bars. No matter which side of the razor wire we re on, this compelling book inspires us all to face our fears to overcome the obstacles in our lives. Tom Lagana, co-author, Chicken Soup for the Prisoner's Soul and Serving Productive Time --Raul Sanchez Monreal, Jr.
The memoir you hold in your hand is a labor of love, a healing process, a gift to the women that are still behind bars, and a gift to us, about a subject not spoken about enough in society: the central role that prisons, and the attendant political and economic structures that make their presence seem inevitable, natural in fact, play in society; the large amounts of money that are spent to incarcerate rather than educate, to punish rather than rehabilitate, to dehumanize rather than heal. ...Alan Eladio Gomez, PhD, Borderlands Scholar and Assistant Professor, School of Justice and Social Inquiry, Arizona State University --Alan Eladio Gomez, PhD, Borderlands Scholar and Assistant Professor, School of Justice and Social Inquiry, Arizona State University
In The Slumber Party from Hell, Sue Ellen Allen will take you to the actual scenes behind the prison wire so that you live her experiences. At the same time, you are allowed to reflect on the lessons at the end of each chapter of this valuable book. Sue Ellen uses her tragedy to elevate human consciousness through gritty, visceral writing that allows our senses to become involved. She lives her motto. She has been there, done that and now challenges us to help the next person suffering. ....
