The Kid by Kevin Lewis
November 15, 2008 5:24 pm BiographyA true story of a boy called Kevin Lewis who grew up on a rundown council estate in South London. Kevin was brutally beaten and starved half to death by his parents. The social services seemed to ignore what was going on as often seems to be the case in many similar books. Kevin was and bullied through school. Kevin tried really hard to make his life work out but things spiralled out of control when he loses his foster parents. When were 17 he got involved in London’s criminal underworld, where he came to be known as ‘The Kid’. Kevin was always a strong character and always wanted better for himself.
It’s a real heartbreaking read, it made me really angry how the social services let all the things go on. He suffered so much from the people who were supposed to care for and look after him. He was bullied throughout school and by his own family he also suffered from bulimia and felt like killing himself. It made me so pleased to see how Kevin succeeded and turned his life around. It’s a very inspiring read that makes you think your own problems are nothing compared to what Kevin had to go through.
