Reseña del libro "The Homeless Man's Journal"
Based on a true story. While waiting at his usual bus stop, Ben discovers a notebook that tells the life-changing story of a homeless man who once slept there. The Homeless Man's Journal chronicles the experiences of author Shayne Whitaker. Abandoned by his mother when he was only four years old, Shayne embarked on an odyssey full of hardship, poverty, and abuse that crisscrossed the country. The Homeless Man's Journal will stir your emotions and remind you that the power to persevere is within us all. After being placed in a foster home when he was four years old, Shayne was eventually reunited with his father. He spent the next decade moving from state to state and town to town, living in impoverished conditions in dilapidated houses, motels, trailer parks, and even a ghost town in rural Oregon. Matters were made worse as he endured physical and mental abuse. When he was still a young teenager, Shayne was sent to live at an orphanage in a small southern town. Despite it all, he graduated from high school, went to college, served in the Army National Guard, and survived homelessness. More importantly, he discovered the meaning of friendship and family. It's a story that will inspire you to never give up. Join the author on an amazing journey where he sees the worst in people but also discovers the innate goodness that exists in the world. Homeless when he began writing the book, Shayne found hope in the idea that success consists of getting up just one more time than you fall.
