About this item

Problem Child is a heart-wrenching story that will take you on an emotional roller-coaster ride that makes The Twilight Zone look like Disneyland.

Problem Child is the unbelievably true story of Terrell Carter, an American musician and actor who grew up in Buffalo, New York, in a dysfunctional family, each member crazier than the next. And the Problem Child is the only one in the story who may, or may not, actually have a problem. An emotional journey of trials and revelations, with a huge secret at its core, this story may force you to laugh - just to keep from crying.

“Terrell, we’re still feeling the goosebumps.” (Quincy Jones)

“My beautiful baby boy, even more beautiful on the inside, and he sings even better than that. Now Ms. Patti is giving him his wings to fly among the greats.” (Patti LaBelle)

    This book is so good. It is an easy read and very sad, yet inspiring at the same time. It is a testimony that it's not where you're from, but where you're going.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Problem Child is Postal Child

    This book is absolutely an amazing story to read. I promise you will agree that this is truly a "Postal Child" for many of our children today. What a miracle in the making and hope for so many other people who has or are experiencing life like Terrell's . this is such an inspirational story to read. I didn't know the artist until I read the book and then went looking for his work. You are truly a gift from God for the world to see what God can do if you only believe.

    Of a graphically difficult childhood/dysfunctional family. Great job. Am rooting for Terrell and Dimples and all kids like them in the world.
