Some randomly selected and brutally honest friends and acquaintances were given the story to read just to find out what they thought of it and gave me an idea if I had something that could be published, here are some of the comments I received.
Hang on for a great ride. There is humor, excitement, sadness and a desire for more when it ends. I under stand that you are working on your next book which I'm looking forward to.

What a refreshing book! The prose is wonderful. A delightful and funny tale of a group of boys growing up in a foreign country wanting to be American. It is set during a time when kids could be kids. A time when they had to use their imagination to figure out ways to entertain themselves, often with hilarious results.

What a great story! I laughed so hard I could not put the pages down, when the kid's life turned to serious, I found the words so inspiring. I hope you write more, I love your writing style and I loved the story, I would like to know more about the "gang".

We have never laughed so hard than reading the adventures of those kids. What a testimony to the imagination children have when left to entertain themselves.
A true heartwarming and inspiring story, We could not put it down. We hope that you will write more books.
