Theme/Life Lesson

. Every person may not be born into a life where they feel loved and safe but every child deserves a family. Every person deserves love and the opportunity to live a joyful life.

Back Review This book will challenge you to

examine your priorities. It will inspire you to believe you can make a difference in the life of others’.

“Father to the Fatherless” is a very unique story that represents the negative realities facing millions of African children today.

Title Change If I changed the title of “Father to

the Fatherless” I would change it too “Anything is Possible”.

I find that this would be a good title for the book because throughout Charles’ life he always believed that anything was possible.
