What Is the Story of Tigers Be Still?
Tigers Be Still is about Sherry Wickman, a young woman who earns a Mmaster’s degree in art therapy only to end up unemployed and living at home with her depressed sister who drinks on the couch all day and her mother who won’t come downstairs. Sherry is sinking with them until a ray of hope shines through: a job. She gets hired to teach art by the principal at a local school (and once upon a time, her mother’s prom date), and he also hires her as a therapist for his teenage son Zach. She helps both of their families regain their footing as she finds her own. As Sherry puts is, “This is the story of how I got out of bed.”
