Description

Reshuffled tells the life stories of former foster children, who despite all odds, craft productive lives.

Within Reshuffled, former foster children share their trials and strategies to gain footing in their unpredictable lives with the hope that their stories can model, inspire, and encourage youth facing similar situations today. Tracy Gharbo and Linda Palmer have captured the authentic voices of the abused and abandoned children who become lawyers, social workers, military officers, college graduates, scientists, teachers, parents, athletes, and foster care advocates. Inspiration abounds in unique lives, told honestly and without reserve.



  • Focus on connecting with 12-18 year olds in foster care, their foster parents, and social workers
  • Submit to major industry reviewers, including Publisher's Weekly and Foreword Reviews
  • Send ARC to Dr. Phil's publicist
  • Pitch to traditional and online media
  • Network with Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA)


  • About the Author
    Tracy Gharbo grew up in Central Ohio and graduated from The Ohio State University with a B.A. in Journalism. She has fond memories of her first writing experiences, including as a staff reporter and photographer for the university's student paper and as a student intern in the athletic department writing features for sports programs and press releases. She went on to make a career in advertising and marketing and is currently a marketing manager in the healthcare industry. Tracy's interest in child advocacy stems from a difficult period in her early teens that left her feeling unheard and isolated. She works as a CASA to give children in crisis a voice and a reliable advocate for their needs. She has volunteered as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) in Williamsburg, Virginia since 2016 where she resides. Linda Palmer is a former public-school teacher and business owner. Trained in educational counseling at the College of William and Mary and the University of Virginia, she has volunteered as a Court Appointed Special Advocate since 2012. She values her experience in court mediation and enjoys writing children's books. Linda resides in Williamsburg, Virginia.

    Great experience and I have zero concerns. They communicated through the shipping process and if there was any hiccups in it, they let me know. Books arrived in perfect condition as well as being fairly priced. 10/10 recommend. I will definitely shop here again!

    The shipping was just superior

    The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

    Found a hard to get book…

    Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
