This true, heartwarming story reveals that miracles occur in everyday life. Enjoyable and uplifting, One Kid at a Time will empower--and encourage--everyone who reads it.
Danny had no chance. His mother abandoned him. His father in prison didn't know him. His grandmother beat him so badly that the doctors couldn't count the bruises. He lived nonstop days of unending anxiety, loneliness and terror. Ordered into foster care, the system isolated, drugged and betrayed him.

"Dekker's ability...is striking. It would be easy for a memoir dealing with this subject to veer into an angry, ranting outburst, but Dekker's restrained writing conveys the chaos with refined dignity. Dekker is refreshingly honest...Which makes the story all the more poignant and inspiring." - Kirkus Reviews

"Positive, inspiring, exemplary and deeply spiritual. One Kid at a Time is an instant classic. I loved it." --The Reverend Mel White, author of Stranger at the Gate
