When I was in high school my junior year (95-96) my class read a book about a boy who came from a poor family and most of them he lived in an apartment alone and all I can remember was he ate news paper or dreamed of eating news paper. I think it had a red cover.

This reminds me of a scene I saw in the film King of the Hill when the boy gets so hungry he cuts out a picture of food from a magazine and eats the picture with a knife and fork. It's based on an autobiography. I haven't read the book but it's King of the Hill: A Memoir by A.E.Hotchner.
That's it!!!! Thank you so much! It's a movie? I'll have to find it. Loved the book.
Great. I really liked the movie - will have to try the book!
