More about the book

Set against the backdrop of the Great Depression, this story follows a young boy facing poverty and the struggles of life without welfare. With a widowed mother and limited food options, he endures hardships, relying on meager meals and occasional treats like discounted hamburgers. His resilience shines through as he dreams of better days. At fifteen, he takes a bold step by lying about his age to join the US Navy, marking the end of his hunger and the beginning of a new chapter in his life.
