Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the nineteen thirties our country was going through a serious depression, and jobs were at a premium, and were very hard to find. Many families could not afford to feed their children let alone pay rent or other necessary costs. As result, foster homes and orphanages began to spring up to provide housing and care for these children. Religious and non-religion oriented homes were in the forefront of this movement in the U.S. Many parents left their children in these homes, while they made many efforts to find jobs and survive themselves. The Second World War came along by the nineteen forties, the war effort needed many workers to build the war machine that was needed to send our troops into battle. Women became the strong workforce needed. Again, this left many children stranded at a home with no parent. The foster homes and orphanages continued their efforts to hold or house these children. This story is the true story of one such child that ended up spending his first seventeen years in foster homes or orphanages. It gives some insight as to what it may have been like for our children of the depression and war years.

He's ready for his life to finally begin, until one night, when he passes out and wakes up somewhere totally unexpected...in 1969, where he connects with a magnetic boy named Michael. And then, just as suddenly as he arrived, he slips back to present-day Boston, where the family of his donor is waiting to explain that his new liver came with a side effect—the ability to time travel. And they've tasked their youngest son, Blake, with teaching Andre how to use his unexpected new gift. Andre splits his time bouncing between the past and future. Between Michael and Blake.
