Refreshing read about real life and real problems people face very inspiring.

[Kim]

This was a quick read I received free with a collection of books from a BBC promotion. It was ok- but quick reads just leave me wanting a bit more detail!

[Lindsey]

several short accounts of people who have overcome hardship - an ok read but not especially noteworthy - have read more inspiring stuff elsewhere
