"This introduction to the life and work of a legendary Canadian cannot but inspire the reader to reach outside the box to follow one's dreams. As a biography of a blind person, it inspires understanding, and this is a remarkable accomplishment in itself, especially since many potential readers will not have much first-hand experience with people who are blind or otherwise visually impaired. - Canadian Materials magazine Oct 2010 "This book works on many levels especially the educational component, which offers interaction. Watson has done a great deal of research and asks the reader to think outside the box, like Healey did, and to take risks and not to give up on their dreams." - Muskoka Magazine (Canada), April 2011 Out of Darkness is most successful when describing Healeys childhood and adolescence. -- Quill & Quire [Out of Darkness] is a richly detailed overview of Healeys life. -- Quill and Quire Books for Young People Cindy Watson has pulled together an excellent and accessible book of [Jeff Healys] life... This is a wonderful book. Watson brings Jeff Healy back to life for her readers. The reading level is easy and the style is smooth and thoughtful. Teens who are just picking up a guitar or have been playing for several years will find this book interesting and informative. -- Resource Links, Dec 2010 "This book works on many levels especially the educational component, which offers interaction. Watson has done a great deal of research and asks the reader to think outside the box, like Healey did, and to take risks and not to give up on their dreams." -- Muskoka Magazine
