Champion of the Forgotten
Kids in trouble - the homeless, the abused, the addicts . . . who cares for them in today's Australia? Les Twentyman does. And he's got something to say: "I'm a youth worker, not an undertaker. And I'm sick of burying kids!"
Les Twentyman has done many things in his time: stood for parliament, coached football teams, taught sport in schools, even tried to sell used cars - and, most importantly, championed the underprivileged. This is the gripping autobiography of a man who is larger than life, and an extraordinary glimpse into the work he does for young people. Les Twentyman is a media magnet.
