Twice Upon A Time: A Limb Lengthening Journey by Moses Sarnue Gibson (Author), Richard Laryea (Author) has achieved a remarkable milestone, ranking among the Top 100 Bestsellers in two Amazon categories. #58 Best Seller in Teen & Young Adult Self Esteem eBooks (January 02, 2026). #87 Best Seller in Personal Success & Spirituality (January 02, 2026). In "Twice Upon a Time," Gibson lays bare his odyssey. He explores the challenges he confronts as a child during the Liberian Civil War, his harrowing journey and hair breath escapes to the succoring and ultimate scholarship of the SOS Children’s Village program in Ghana, which ultimately leads to life and learning in America. In highbrow reflection and in playful banter, he catalogues to the reader the depth of his insecurity born of a body-shaming mindset. It dents his self-esteem; it resets him and leaves us to judge whether he is all the better for it. The book profiles Gibson from many angled shots and the gift of community support and heroic self-realization which sucks you into bravely bodying forth your dream. He recruits us into the challenges of his mental displacement, the quest to meet what he understood to be our biased social standards. His proven courage aptly displayed through his experiences with the Liberian Civil War, a complex US immigration System and a gruesome Limb Lengthening journey serves as a powerful reminder of what the human spirit can accomplish and that accepting a set of physical features we were born with is a choice and not a life sentence – a vital part of personal change.
