Description
Kabir has spent his whole life in jail with his mother. He's never met his dad and knows only stories about the world outside from his teacher. When a new warden arrives, Kabir is handed over to a long-lost "uncle" who turns out to be a fraud. With nowhere to go, he runs away as fast as his legs will take him. He meets Rani, another street kid, and she takes him under her wing. But plotting their next move is hard and fraught with danger in a world that cares little for homeless, low-caste children. Kabir discovers he's not the type to give up. He's ready to show the world that he and his mother deserve a place in it. A gripping novel about survival and the will to thrive, Born Behind Bars tells the story of a boy who refuses to be defined by his circumstances.
