Evan Cutler's autobiographical account of being a teen runaway tells the very real trials that face kids on the street. He does not glamorize the life he lived, nor does he use scare tactics. He tells it like it was.The most useful part of the bookis the reference section. Mr. Cutler has included references for parents and teenagers, runaways and those who know someone who has runaway. Every person who works with children - especially with adolescents - should have a copy of this book.
A Must Read!

Everyone should read this book! I know Evan personally, and his experiences have opened my eyes to side of life I had thought about many times as a teen. His personal accounts reach out to runaways and troubled teens all over the world. "Runaway Me" is the "Scared Straight" of books.
Moving and realistic...

Evan knows what he's talking about.

I've known Evan personally for several years. I know he knows from personal experience what he's talking about. He also has worked diligently to try to reach out to other runaways with service and compassion, listening to their stories, giving them encouragement and advice, and just being their friend. He can be trusted... A friend, Dean Cozzens
