Joe Cooper couldn't read, write or spell until he was 38 years old. Don't erase your dreams is the story of how he struggled with illiteracy, dyslexia and years of frustration and discrimination. Cooper, who left home at the age of 15 to live on the streets, in vacant cars, and on friends' couches, was taken advantage of by many people throughout the years because of his illiteracy. His continuing pursuit of a formal education makes his story is an inspirational one for those who also struggle with education.
