Hope's Boy: A Memoir af Andrew Bridge

Wow. What a heartbreaking yet good story that shows a lot of good things about the human spirit. I applaud Andrew Bridge and the wonderful life he has made for himself despite such an unfortunate childhood. I do wish his grandmother could have raised him somehow. There are children all over the United States in these same situations and sometimes much worse. I am glad Mr. Bridge is now spending his life trying to help children in the foster care system. Bravo, Mr. Bridge and may the Lord help you!… (mere)

Hope's Boy: A Memoir af Andrew Bridge

Haunting: I was lucky enough to read an early version of this book, and it's stuck with me for all the months since then. Told with unflagging honesty, and about a life that's riveting and fascinating.

Hope's Boy: A Memoir af Andrew Bridge

A heartbreakingly honest tale of a young boy removed from his mother at age 7 due to her deteriorating mental state, and left to make the best of it in a loveless foster home. He goes on to become a successful litigator on behalf of children who have entered the foster care system...wonderfully written and deeply moving.
