Some kids get all the breaks. Some don’t.This book is about the ones who ended up in prison, the ones who had been abused or taken away from their families, who had given up on society.Doin’ Time ?tells the stories of nine men who came from troubled and turbulent backgrounds who got offered a second chance and grabbed it. Many of them now work with vulnerable young people, to give back, as mentors or welfare officers, motivational speakers and community leaders.Everyone deserves a second chance.
Great book based on true stories and stories from many perspectives. It gave me an insight into how people end up on the wrong path, how lack of guidance can affect their whole lives but the fantastic part is how some people can break free of their past and forge ahead with a new direction. Very inspirational book and glad I got to read it.
