As I read through the pages of this fast-paced memoir, I experienced a full range of emotions and was encouraged to always persevere in every worthwhile endeavor.
Thank you Kyle for sharing this. I have bought an extra copy for my middle schooler to learn not everything comes easy! How you can work towards something that truly means something to you and to not give up.
An amazing and motivating book with the story of Kyle’s life. It takes a lot of courage to open up so candidly to the world. His commitment to his family, and to himself, is honorable. Looking forward to reading the “next chapter” of his life if he decides to write again.
