Your family is dark, and you stumble, nearly trip, over suicide. Even though you’re only fourteen, you drown yourelf in whiskey as often as you can find the true love who obsesses over you as much as you do him. You can’t get over him or any drug, but someone points to a way out where people tell your story as much as their own. John Grotten, from PACO THE GREAT and THE BOOK OF JEREMIAH, narrates this explicit story of abuse, addiction, and recovery: how he met Paco De Colores, how he lived with Lord Randolf My Son, how he came out. ON MY KNEES is a brutalized boy’s moony story seeking sunshine. Do not expect Disney; the kid is damaged goods and has to learn how to live the way he's become. This was readers' favorite of the first six books!
