A Chance In the World

History & Biography

“A Chance in the World is a fantastic book. As a narrative, it tells the story of a boy who found in books the imaginative ability to see a new, different, and better world. As a history, it unearths a painful and abusive past that, against all odds, forged the character of the wonderful man Steve Pemberton has become. But, most important, the book affirms a set of values central to all of humanity—love, hope, faith, and perseverance. A Chance in the World reminds us of a universal truth: the human spirit is enduring.”
