The kids nobody wants

Right now I'm reading Ask Me Why I Hurt: The Kids Nobody Wants and the Doctor Who Heals Them
He operates a mobile van and serves homeless kids in Arizona. Anyone who cares about children and their outcomes should read this book. It is absolutely shocking to realize that so many children have been discarded like stray animals. One boy was put on a bus to Arizona from Alabama with little else than a piece of paper with a nonexistent address. It's the most compelling page-turner I've read in years. I will confess, though, that his story of a little gray cat in Hurricane Katrina made me cry more than anything else.
