Praise for There Are No Words:
" I am so impressed with your attention to detail and beautiful descriptions, not to mention your stick-to-it-iveness in getting it published. I'm taking a lesson! It is one thing to have empathy and another to be able to put across on paper the super-sensitivity to sound and touch. Wow. Your love of the characters shines through and the use of photos is brilliant. Boy, I could sure smell those roses and the leaves on the forest path. Great
job!"

“Mary brings her characters to life with an infinite attention to detail and infuses them with depth, humor and selflessness. ‘There Are No Words’ propelled me into a time and place in which even children were faced with the realities of racism and war.”
