I am reviewing a copy of A Chance in the World (Young Readers Addition through Thomas Nelson Children’s and Netgalley:

This is the story of Steve Pemberton, who endured abusive foster homes, one of which he had to endure intense physical, emotions. Steve refuses to let this abusive family who for years has everyone fooled, and then he finds his voice to speak up, and after eleven years with a horribly abusive family, he finally is able to get out of there.

During this time he becomes determined to find his real family, while attending college, making a career for himself and having three children. He refused to let what the family he had been with let him beat him down, no matter how many times they told him he was worthless, he worked to get a good education, from the time he was young he had found his escape in books.

If you are a young person looking for a inspirational book about overcoming against all odds, and not letting words beat you down.

I give A Chance in the World five out of five stars !

Happy Reading!
