But They Call Me Sonny

...but they call me Sonny is a based on a real life. Fourteen and growing up on the streets of Waterloo, Iowa, Sonny stands his ground as he dodges the shame life forces him to live. Words demean and abusive insults fill him with rage. What he learns is how to push back. He must; he needs to survive, his siblings depend on him. He commands his world by all the means a young mind can conjure up. That is...until fate steps in and holds out hope and changes his life forever.Led to believe he is a bastard, the night he finds out, he has a name, he sets out on a quest that takes him to all but two of the continual states in the union. He looks for a life he can only dare to dream. Always on the outside looking in, he wants to get in. His mission leads him from the dredges of the earth his life; his heart aches to belong. His goal, to be on the inside looking out.Meet those who influence his life. Travel with him on his path. Good and bad, the path he walks allows men to respect him or forces them to step aside and each woman he meets is glad she met him.
