Helpful Score: 1

A wonderful memoir of a small girl who is raised by her dysfunctional mother and father. When sober the young girl's father captured the children's imagination, but when he drank was dishonest and destructive. To make matters worse the children's mother was a free spirit who didn't want the responsiblity of raising a family. I was stunned at the conditions the children lived in. They all eventually manage to find their way to New York, their parents follow and choose to be homeless even as their children prosper. An incredible story.
