That would have been a pity because, although it may not be in the front rank of celebrity memoirs, ''Foster Kid'' is probably one of the most modest and decent examples. It's worth a look by anyone who values an unaffected and ultimately inspiring demonstration that a worthwhile life can be hewn from the most unpromising of raw materials.
A very similar, if more sophisticated, tale of an actor who came from a gentler foster home in the same period, is [[Everybody's Daughter, Nobody's Child]] by Jane Lapotaire. For another Scouse actor's story, try [[Ricky - The Autobiography]] by Ricky Tomlinson. If you'd like an autobiography of a cockney, try [[Phil Daniels: Class Actor by Phil Daniels]].
