Invisible Child: Poverty, Survival, and Hope in an American City by Andrea Elliott

 


I still feel optimism for this family. After all the strife, they managed to keep some sort of unit. I was disappointed at Dasani's actions at the boarding school. I hoped it would lead her on a path to prosperity. Then she could help heal her family. But she had short eyes. I thought since her mom and dad supported her, she would choose to excel. But Dasani accepted too much responsibility for her family's behavior and not enough for her own. I think these people can still prosper.
