This book is so compelling. I read it because it was left on my kindle by Anderson, my friend who had to read the book for school. I am OCD about having to read any book that is purchased on my kindle, so I read this one. I don't regret it.
It is not the most exciting book to read, not exactly a page-turner. But, it will make you think and emote.
The subtitle really tells the story. Two Weses grow up in the same city, almost on the same street, at the same time. But their stories quickly diverge, and one ends up in prison while the other grows up to - among other tremendous accomplishments - deliver a speech ahead of Barak Obama at the 2008 Democratic National Convention.
What made the difference?
Maybe a better question is Who made the difference?
What can you and I do to be the difference for the Weses in our lives?
