A moving story.

What a wonderful and emotional story. A must read!

A 2022 must read

A must to read and experience not the life of a panhandler but how someone like you and I experience personal change once we let a panhandler into our lives, challenge ourselves in 2022, and make a real difference in someone’s life.

Borrowed immediately :-)

Unfortunately I have not read this yet. I heard about it and was anxious to read it. Shortly after arriving, my in-laws came to visit and my mother-in-law started reading it and asked if she could take it with when they left so she could finish it. She absolutely loved it! I had planned on lending it out to others when I had finished. I guess I just got a headstart on it lol!

Inspiring story. Uplifting example of caring between 2 people who might never have met due to their different places in society.
