“Let us all read more books like these to prevent the likes of Spitler and Muscle-Weeny from ever leading the masses again.”

REVIEWS

“The best book I have recently read. It is written from a child’s perspective and the story is really touching. This man was a true hero. In an age of made-up superheroes, reading about the real deal is refreshing.”
