Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charities for Children in the City of Mexico For the diminution of crime and the increase of happiness it is necessary to gather up the waifs and strays, and make a home for all the children of misery. Before Christ came, old servants and deformed children were exposed to die. In mighty Rome the bodies of the dead and dying floated down the Tiber past the palaces of the great and the temples of the gods. In Christian lands the gentle hand of Charity is stretched out to rescue the poor, sick and abandoned, the defective and the delinquent. Happy is the people that is ready to care for the worst off, giving sight to the blind, hearing and speech to the deaf-mute, hands and feet to the maimed, instruction to the ignorant, medicine to the sick, straightening to the deformed, virtue to the vicious, homes to the homeless and, finally, restoring them all to Society as safe and worthy members thereof. This is the high ideal which Charities for Children propose to themselves in the City of Mexico. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Wild Book written by Juan Villoro and published by Restless Books. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “We walked toward the part of the library where the air smelled as if it had been interred for years….. Finally, we got to the hallway where the wooden floor was the creakiest, and we sensed a strange whiff of excitement and fear. It smelled like a creature from a bygone time. It smelled like a dragon.” Thirteen-year-old Juan’s favorite things in the world are koalas, eating roast chicken, and the summer-time. This summer, though, is off to a terrible start. First, Juan’s parents separate and his dad goes to Paris. Then, as if that wasn’t horrible enough, Juan is sent away to his strange Uncle Tito’s house for the entire break! Uncle Tito is really odd: he has zigzag eyebrows; drinks ten cups of smoky tea a day; and lives inside a huge, mysterious library. One day, while Juan is exploring the library, he notices something inexplicable and rushes to tell Uncle Tito. “The books moved!” His uncle drinks all his tea in one gulp and, sputtering, lets his nephew in on a secret: Juan is a Princeps Reader––which means books respond magically to him––and he’s the only person capable of finding the elusive, never-before-read Wild Book. Juan teams up with his new friend Catalina and his little sister, and together they delve through books that scuttle from one shelf to the next, topple over unexpectedly, or even disappear altogether to find The Wild Book and discover its secret. But will they find it before the wicked, story-stealing Pirate Book does?

Book Street Children s Children

  • Release : 2013
  • ISBN : 9781303540097
  • Pages : 296 pages

Download or read book Street Children s Children written by Anna Cathleen Walsh Palencia and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the life histories of twenty four adolescent mothers who had lived on the streets of Mexico City, Mexico for a prolonged period (for more than four years) and came to the Mexican non-profit organization SEDAC for support with their pregnancies and children. Research subjects were categorized as having "successful" and "unsuccessful" street exits based on their ability to stay off the street and parent their children. Primary findings were that mothers in the "unsuccessful" category had experienced violence at a greater rate both in their families of origin and on the street and were also more likely to suffer from mental health problems, especially suicidal ideation. Also, the "unsuccessful" mothers were more likely to have migrated to the street at a younger age and to have used drugs for a longer period of time. There was not a significant statistical difference between the education levels, duration on the street, labor histories or age of drug initiation between the two groups. These findings were based on analysis of archival research of prior residents at SEDAC. In addition, the findings were fortified by ethnographic observations conducted by the researcher on the streets with Casa Alianza's street educators and within the resident shelters of Casa Alianza and SEDAC, as well as by interviews with personnel of both organizations. The chief practical finding of this research for social welfare agencies that provide for street youth is that a focus on mental health and recovery from trauma and abuse should be an integral part of efforts to help adolescent mothers transition off of the street and successfully parent their children.,

Book The Children of Sanchez

Download or read book The Children of Sanchez written by Oscar Lewis and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-11-29 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneering work from a visionary anthropologist, The Children of Sanchez is hailed around the world as a watershed achievement in the study of poverty—a uniquely intimate investigation, as poignant today as when it was first published. It is the epic story of the Sánchez family, told entirely by its members—Jesus, the 50-year-old patriarch, and his four adult children—as their lives unfold in the Mexico City slum they call home. Weaving together their extraordinary personal narratives, Oscar Lewis creates a sympathetic but ultimately tragic portrait that is at once harrowing and humane, mystifying and moving. An invaluable document, full of verve and pathos, The Children of Sanchez reads like the best of fiction, with the added impact that it is all, undeniably, true.
