Discover Humor Behind Bars: Real-Life Tales & Comedic Illustrations From Inside the Big House. Unearth the lighter side of prison life.

Delve into the pages of Penitentiary Built, a unique compilation of true, factual stories from the inside of a prison. Authored by an innocent inmate, this book offers a refreshing perspective on prison life that veers away from the usual narrative of fear and despair. Instead, it brings to light the brighter, funnier sides of a world that is often shrouded in darkness and misconceptions.

Each story in Penitentiary Built is accompanied by a comedic drawing, masterfully crafted to depict the events as they unfolded. These illustrations serve not only to enhance the narrative but also to provide a visual representation of the humor and absurdity that can be found even in the most unlikely places.

This book is not just about laughter and light-heartedness, though. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the ability to find joy in the midst of adversity, and the power of storytelling as a tool for change. It challenges the stereotypical portrayals of prison life that we often see in Hollywood and on television, offering instead a raw, unfiltered look at the realities of incarceration.

But Penitentiary Built is more than just a book. It is a mission. A mission to bring a smile to your face, yes, but also to make a difference in the world. With every purchase of this book, 10% of the sales will be donated to care camps for children with cancer. This means that as you immerse yourself in these humorous tales, you are also contributing to a noble cause.

So, come and join us on this journey. Buy Penitentiary Built, share it with your friends, and let's spread laughter and hope together. This isn't just a book. It's a movement. And it starts with you.
