Ratings and reviews

I have recently read the book, it is brilliantly written, great storyline, captivating from start to finish. The book carries you from the sad and hardship life of the young boy experiencing and witnessing abuse, to his fun youth as he grows and to the lost of his beloved mother. It has the element of sadness, fun and the encouraging and the motivating end. Well written by author , a short book that caters for not so much of readers as well.

A touching yet motivational masterpiece that needs to be heard, especially by that person at the verge of giving up. This is an impossible turned possible, a story we all need to hear.

I recommend this book for young and old. It is an inspirational book, easy to read and understand.
