Format:Paperback
I have never read a book that's made me laugh out loud and also shed tears. John's story is an awesome one, and he gives God the glory for the turn around. What a testimony! Would make an excellent present for a Christian, or a non-Christian. I couldn't put it down. Literally!

A trully gripping account of John's life. Very readable & inspiring. Completely open about his ordeals, of which were many & of a disturbing nature. Fascinating how God has redeemed & turned his otherwise dispairing life around to one of hope & Peace. A definate must to read.
I highly recommend the book without reservation.
Well done John!

overall I thought this book was exelent.
The way the writter captured the escence of the things that had been going on in this remarkable mans life.
John Robinson is one of the most remarkable people ive ever had the priverlige of meeting if not the most remarkable person. By this I mean the way he coped with all the trials and tribulations he faced whilst growing up.
In one light this book exposes the wrong dooings of Social Services at the time and in the other light it exposes the pain and suffering one child went through whilst growing up.
once again I say that John Robinson is the most remarkable man ive ever met. Lerning to overcome fear and having to re-build his life and share his story with others.
I urge you to read this mans remarkable true story of courage and bravery through his time of crissis.
