Jeannie reads an excerpt from LAYLA in support of Ricky's Revenge, a non-profit organization designed to get any man, woman or child to safety immediately by distributing stuffed monkeys with emergency contact numbers embroidered on the arms and a pre-programed cellphone in the pocket. In the reading, Jeannie tells the story of an abduction and rape where she lost her own Ricky, the little stuffed monkey that brought her a sense of security and peace in a messed up world of incest, rape, death, and all the chaos that comes with homelessness. Jeannie speaks for those who cannot speak for themselves, as do the Ricky monkeys being circulated throughout the United States, and as does her incredible book, LAYLA.

Warning: This book and youtube video is NOT appropriate for children. It is graphic, raw, honest, and at times horrendous. You will find yourself wanting to put it down because it will stir up your own wounds and raw emotions. But you won’t put it down. What you will do is read it in one sitting. Die a death with Layla…and come in the light with Jeannie!
