Summary:
"Together with his older brother and little sister, seven-year-old Joseph Njoroge runs away from home - and their abusive mother - in a slum in Eldoret. Ominously, he loses contact with his siblings soon afterwards and becomes a member of a street gang. This involves begging and stealing just to survive. How can he escape the vicious cycle of drugs and violence? Unbreakable is a story full of pain and fear. But also of defiance, determination and love."--Page 4 of cover.
