À propos de ce contenu audio
These seven unforgettable true-life adventure stories are sometimes humorous, often gritty, but never grim. A boy's life experienced from the stoop, a small piece of real estate, made of dreams, granite, and memories, his window onto and into the world.
It was Steve Bernstein's fortuitous and profound friendships which crossed boundaries of race, gender, religion, and even species that enabled him to navigate these tumultuous times. Without his dog, Wolf, Steve would not have survived the wrath of a street gang. On the day Martin Luther King, Jr., was killed, it was Anthony who recognized how dangerous it was for Steve, the only white kid on the basketball court that April evening. An epic bike trip with Joe breathed life into Steve's dream to be free, a lifelong friendship that only 9/11 could extinguish.
Stories from the Stoop is a triumphant and tender coming-of-age journey intended for adults and young adults alike. Steve's voice, spare and street smart, resonates across age and ethnicity and offers the possibility that life circumstances need not predict destiny. All you have to do is find enough courage, compassion, and chutzpah - look it up!
