Featuring Kevin Ryan, Tina Kelley and Newark Mayor Cory Booker at Barnes & Noble, 2289 Broadway at 82nd Street, New York City.

Six extraordinary teenagers from across the United States and Canada struggle to escape life alone on the streets. Ahead of them lay thousands of miles of open road, human traffi ckers, violent gangs, hunger, unspeakable acts of cruelty and, ultimately, tests of will that take them to the brink of endurance, until they fi nd Covenant House, the largest charity in the Americas dedicated to homeless youth. Almost Home, the true story of their near-miraculous transformations, is told by one of America’s most passionate child advocates and a respected veteran journalist. It is fi lled with hope, resolve, and the kindness of strangers.
