Opis

The life story of Hoppy, a troubled and lonely young boy growing up in Muncie, Indiana in the 1950's and '60's. While in a boy's reformatory at age nine for one too many thefts, his mother succumbs to cancer on his tenth birthday. With the whereabouts of his father unknown and no relatives, he is sent to an orphanage. After four years there he runs away, exchanging the sternness of the institution for the brutality of the streets and a life of drug dealing and theft. Immersed in this captivating life he almost loses his life at age 15 during a drug deal gone bad. His life takes one agonizing twist after another. All along the way, God sows little seeds of faith through those that cross his path. This about the stark reality of life without Christ, yet not without moments of humor and romance along the road to redemption.
