Little Duke Boy is an inspirational fiction novel based on true life events about a young boy named Clabo. The page-turner recounts Clabo growing up in the projects in Pittsburgh, PA., in a fatherless environment and a mother addicted to heroin. Clabo doesnt allow this dynamic to affect him too deeply. At least he doesnt think so. While most of the people around him are dysfunctional, broke and broken - he has a couple of positive male role models who feeds him wisdom that he will later use when hes of age. While he didnt have a relationship with his earthly father, he forms and nurtures a strong connection with his heavenly Father. But that doesnt come right away. Before Clabo connects with God, he gets connected to the street life at the tender age of 10. By the time Clabo is 16, hes been arrested, sold drugs, gets his girlfriend pregnant, and becomes feared among his neighborhood peers. Clabo lives a fast life that is all too real to young Black boys in the hood. Surrounded by violence, drugs, dirty money, robbery, women, a near-death experience - and even murder for hire charges, Clabo eventually decides this lifestyle isnt for him and wants to change. But does he? Little Duke Boy chronicles a jaw-dropping, adrenaline rushing, heart-wrenching experience that makes you want to save this hot-head, yet its laced with a measure of faith that will tug the hearts of even the most hardcore souls reading this story.
