“A story of hope and resilience, and a reminder that no matter what life may throw at us, as Travis says, as long as we ‘Never Give Up, Never Quit,’ we can achieve anything we set our hearts and minds to. He is quite simply a great American and an example for us all.”

“Dan-el Padilla Peralta’s story is as compulsively readable as a novel, an all-American tall tale that just happens to be true. From homeless shelter to Princeton, Oxford, and Stanford, through the grace not only of his own hard work but his mother’s discipline and care, he documents the America we should still aspire to be.” —Dr. Anne-Marie Slaughter, President of the New America Foundation
