内容简介：
This is a story of a young boy's struggle to survive in a world where faith, even of the smallest kind, can bring about miracles. Joseph is an eight-year-old boy who finds himself alone when his parents die in a car accident. He must overcome many difficulties as he survives living homeless on the streets of a big city. When circumstances beyond his control place him in a life-threatening situation, Joseph begins the greatest adventure of his young life. While critically injured, Joseph has an out-of-body experience. Waking in heaven, he meets a man named Jesus and hears the story of the Prodigal Son. As doctors work to save his life, Joseph finds himself in a hospital room recovering from a head injury. With his memory returning, Joseph realizes who caused his accident and who killed "Red" Broody, the owner of a pool hall. Now his newfound friends, a detective and a nurse, try to persuade a reluctant Joseph to share that information with the police so they can bring the man to justice-the same man Joseph believes is the Prodigal Son.
