Complete Description

"The Pretenders" tells the stories of eight people who never stopped trying. From humiliation in school and the anxiety of coping with everyday life unable to read street signs and menus, to shopping, driving, and working, these people lived in a world of dashed hopes and dreams - regardless of outward appearances - until they disocvered their learning disability and unlocked their true gifts.
