Book Details

”Where The Trees Dance has a taste of Jack Kerouac's On The Road, with a nod to the Emerald Isle... both an exploration and a celebration of family and heritage, about bravery and vulnerability, but for the reader it is rich and full of experiences that leap off the page. Tom has written a tribute and love letter to the courage it takes to set out on a quest for meaning, on the ultimate journey, to battle your own demons, and to surrender completely to Love.” ~ Kim Tobin-Lehl, Co-Artistic Director, 4th Wall Theater Company, Houston

“Geraty uses an artful language to provide an honest, humorous, and ultimately satisfying story. A story that may help others to realize that even if you do not hold lofty titles, you may lead the most purposeful life that you can just by devoting yourself to others. Geraty, through this memoir, might become one of your ”guardian angels.” ~ John Burney, Ph.D., former Dean of Arts and Sciences, Drake University

“The memoir really touched my heart. I loved the combination of being a man with all the wandering and explorations, as well as the vulnerable side of Tom's true love story. The interweave throughout the book of his adoption story was brilliant.” ~ Ann Flood, Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Certified Mindfulness and Meditation Teacher

“Memoirist Tom Geraty sings a song of gratitude while giving the reader an insider view of what it means to be adopted. Rollicking, no holds barred, highly recommended.” ~ Elaine Pinkerton, author of The Goodbye Baby – Adoptee Diaries and The Hand of Ganesh
