Cameron of Today

The most powerful way to alleviate hopelessness is to bring meaning and purpose to suffering. Cameron of Today demonstrates the power of mentorship, gratitude and the unfathomable omnipotence of unconditional love. Jody Kemple’s Freedom series features the lives of children walking in the rut of life with no hopes, dreams or passion and poignantly interweaves lessons of loyalty, humility, trust, integrity, and faith into the fabric of rigorous, coming-of-age adventures. Through mentorship, thankfulness, and love, each child transforms into a visionary trailblazer, giving back to their community in big ways.  Cameron of Today tells the story of Cameron, an Italian-American boy living in the Bronx of New York City who travels west with his Uncle Ed to Oregon for a summer of fly fishing and whitewater rafting. Cameron’s summertime adventures and new challenges help him to develop the character and resilience he needs to become an intentional and effective servant leader.
