Etched in sand : a true story of five siblings who survived an unspeakable childhood on Long Island

Calcaterra, Regina (author.).

Summary: Calcaterra and her siblings endured a series of foster homes and intermittent homelessness in the shadow of the Hamptons.

An unforgettable reminder that, regardless of social status, the American dream is still within reach for those who have the desire and the determination to succeed.
