Summary One in thirty-three American children, and one in eight African American children, go to sleep each night denied access to a parent because that parent is behind bars. Despite these staggering numbers, however, the children of the incarcerated remain largely invisible. Award-winning journalist Nell Bernstein provides an intimate and at times heartbreaking look into the lives of these children and their families.
