The remarkable and heartwarming story of an abandoned boy growing up in Iran.The 5-year old son of divorced parents and a heartless father is left to fend for himself on the streets of Mashad in Iran, seeking food and shelter wherever he can. His lonely early years are spent just trying to survive. But living a harsh and solitary existence has one advantage: no one bothers to indoctrinate him on his society's cultural values and beliefs. And so he never accepts that his current state is "the will of God." Instead, he is free to dream big dreams: he will get an education, start a new life in a place of possibilities, and build a family of his own. By the time he is 17, he is ready to put his plan into motion. He boards a plane to America, where his dreams will also take flight.A heartwarming true story of hope, belief, and the power of self-determination.
