I've just read this book few hours ago and I was surprised that this made me cry. Well, I'm not a crybaby. I think I just felt the story.
I've known this book for a long time cos my friends were reading it way back in highschool. But it was only now that I found the interest to read it. And I'm grateful that I was able to do so.
True friendship and family matters. In the story, the 4 boys may have nothing but they know 'that' great importance of friendship. They can always count on each other, whatever problem one has. They know how to empathize and love each other.
How I wish there are no unfortunate people in the world and there is no such word as 'poor', and that all youth are sent to school for education. The boys in the story have made mistakes but they are very much willing to change for the best, if given the chance. It was just sad to know that because of poverty and lack of proper guidance, most youth were mislead and directed to the wrong path. And the saddest truth, some were pushed to death. :'(
I hope movie producers or directors would make this story a movie for all to watch cos this book is a must-read, especially to the teens and young adults.
