Heartbreaking and vivid , could not put this one down. A must read for everyone, because things and perceptions of the foster care system and the children within its confines needs a very bright light shone upon it and this defiantly illuminates that darkness for those who have not experienced the system first hand. The courage of this author putting his story out there is simply amazing. If you just read one book this year make it this one, you will not regret it.
