Forewords

Years ago, while visiting Brazil, I met a young boy. He was anxious to show me something and beckoned to me. At the side of the street, he pointed to a large brown box – the kind that could have been wrapped as a birthday present concealing a child’s rocking horse. Except this brown box wasn’t a present; it was this boy’s home. He was living on the street and alone. Later that evening, as I boarded my flight home, there was a severe tropical storm. As the wind howled and the rain fell, the only thing I could think about was this boy and his cardboard box home. What was he doing now?
