About this book

This book was written primarily for those young people, both boys and girls, and their parents and/or mentors who, for whatever reason, believe they have no chance at a successful life when born into poverty. This book is the story of a young boy who believed he was in that category while growing up. Dick's very best friend was his dog, King, who is on the cover of this book. Without King, Dick's childhood would have been very, very difficult, for they were always together. I hope you will continue reading to see how that little boy changed those odds and ultimately did many things that most people cannot even dream of.
