Wayne narrates as his younger self and as his older self. He visits a library when he is older in search of news. He has found out that one of his parents got themselves into trouble when he was a young boy and might have gone to jail. He searches the archives all day but never finds anything within the right dates. The lady at the front tries to help, and just before giving up, they flip the page, and there it was.

I just got this book at the end of class yesterday, so I have not read any. It is a nonfiction book about child abuse and finding hope. Although it might be a little heart aching or sad at some moments I am ready to start reading and see what this book turns out to be! I am curious to know more, hopefully, I will like it!
