About this listen
An eight-year-old boy survives triple-limb amputation by freight train. One of America’s famous yet untold stories of overcoming the stigma of disability and responding with inspirational resilience. To change your perspective on life, listen now! Boy Interrupted takes the listener on Ricky’s remarkable journey of miraculous survival, the power of kindness, humor, mistakes, post-traumatic growth, and other surprises.
Along the way, Ricky’s courageous response was recognized by such figures as Louis Zamperini, news reporters of the Los Angeles Examiner, US Navy ship captains, and state Governors. In 1952, only the cities of Long Beach and Los Angeles, California were enthralled with the life and progress of their little hero, but now, his story is known world-wide.
Richard Hammond was one of the most inspiring and influential people of all time and this audiobook finally puts the spotlight back on this amazing man who never sought for personal attention. He is deserving of every accolade because he truly was a singular man who faced and surmounted uncommon challenges. The testament of his genuine character is that he lived without excuses or complaining. Get ready for a new perspective on life!
