by Karri Lynn Gage (Author)
From Foster Care to Freedom. From Survival to Strength.
5% of America's children are in foster care. But who checks on them when the system stops?
At just fifteen, Karri Lynn Gage was emancipated-alone, hungry, and homeless in California. Her childhood was marked by unimaginable abuse, abandonment, and betrayal by the very people and systems meant to protect her.
Yet The Bootsman Wore Bells isn't just a story of what was lost-it's a testimony to what can be found.
With raw honesty and unbreakable faith, Karri invites readers into her world-one marked by trauma, yet transformed by courage, forgiveness, and hope. Her voice speaks for millions of foster youth who never got the chance to tell their story.
Through resilience, grace, and the healing power of love, Karri rose from a forgotten statistic to a thriving woman, mother, and advocate for change.
This is not just a memoir.
It's a call to awareness.
A call to compassion.
A call to action.
"For every child who was told they weren't enough-this story is proof that they are."
