A Boy Like Me

A Boy Like Me

"Peace can be found
and touched and heard
I know I'll always find you,
brave and welcome bird..."

Fragile and sometimes fleeting, peace can be sought and found in all of us. A Boy Like Me is a beautiful and inspiring story about finding peace, no matter who, or where, we are.
