This 11 year old grew up in an apartment building full of drug dealers and addicts just a few blocks from Times Square. His mother was the head dealer in the building. He was hungry 24/7 and had to beg for change for food. The author, a successful sales exec, almost ignored him, but walked back, took him to McDonald's and developed a lifelong friendship with him. This book is the result of that change of mind on a busy New York street. It opens your eyes to a world that is hard to fathom, a world without hope. What a difference one person can make to someone living in that world.
