`These pages, above all, portray pieces of their (the children) souls, as well as inserts from staff eager to share their stories. Moreso, reading the book, you will learn the ins and outs of teamwork, how grassroot systems provide for children and above all, how detrimental to children’s’ development is putting youth, children and adults together.` Oana Vasiliu, book editor.
