"Imagine a young boy who has never had a home. His only possessions are the old torn clothes he carries in a paper bag. His on ly world is isolation and fear. Althought this young boy has been rescued from his alcoholic mother, the real hurt is just beginning--he has no place to call HOME..... Now considered an F -child--a foster child--yound David experiences the instability of moving in and out of five different homes. Those who feel that all foster kids are trouble--and unworthy of being loved just because they are not part of a REAL family--resent his presence and force him to suffer in shame. Tears of laughter, devastation and hope: all create the journey of this little lost boy who desperately searches for the love of a family..."
