Joel Sonnenberg was only two years old when an 18-wheeler crossed into the lane and crashed into his family's car. He was burned on over 85 percent of his body. This is his story and he is the only one who can tell it, except with the help of his parent on some of the facts. You will experience the world from Joel's perspective, everything that he has done and seen. “he takes you on a personal journey with more twists and turns than a Hollywood movie.” It's been a life of both great struggles and of tremendous achievement and honor. Yet Joel asserts, 'I am just an ordinary person whom people find extraordinary.' Be prepared to fall in love with this inspiring man Joel. His story is truly remarkable. I encourage everyone to read it. It is truly inspiring! Coach Mike Krzyzewski, Head Coach, Duke University Basketball Joel is an American hero. True courage is demonstrated in every page. Bob Dole, Former United States Senator, Kansas The dictionary doesn't have enough adjectives to describe my love and admiration for Joel Sonnenberg. Joni Eareckson Tada, Founder and CEO of Joni and Friends Joel Sonnenberg's story is more than just an uplifting tale of persistence and achievement. Rooted in tragedy, it's the story of a mother's love, a boy's courage, and the resilience of the human spirit. Bryant Gumbel, Television News Journalist His story is one all young people need to hear . . . “optimistic, confident, and filled with faith.” Dr. Jay Kesler, President Emeritus, Taylor University

This book is amazing, so inspiring. I recommend this book to anyone, boys and girls at any age. As a 13 year old it was a great change in the type of things we see and hear everyday. I am extremely glad I took the time to read this book. Also my little sister at the age of 9 read this book and loved it, it is a great read for anyone at any age.

I took many quotes from the book and research on other peoples opinions.
