Download or read book Isak and the Oranges written by Nancy Price Freedman and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Isak and the Oranges, a work of historic fiction, is a carefully researched story about the plight of orphans and half-orphans in New York City at the turn of the last century. It is based on the author's father's experiences as an immigrant child. The Hebrew Orphan Asylum was real, as were the child-rearing practices common at the turn of the last century. Today they would be considered child abuse, but at that time were thought to be "for the child's own good." Although the children left the orphanage well prepared for their future, nothing could erase the terrors of their early life or the stigma of being orphans."--back cover

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the Half Orphan Club. My brothers and I became members on February 28th, 1992. That fateful Friday afternoon was the day the world lost a little of its color and left a little darkness in all of us. We never even saw it coming. Over the years, People have often told me that I needed to write a book about the impact the loss of my father has had on me and my life. So, after nearly twenty years, I finally did. In a time where there isn't much comfort, I hope you will find some sense of support as I take you on my journey. Perhaps yours will turn out to be a lot like mine was, perhaps it won't. Regardless, I want you to know, these waters are not uncharted. Many have come before you, many more will come after you. I know it doesn't mean much, but from one member to another - you will get through this. ~ Karina Gioertz

This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 969 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It was only after the consideration of many months and after much self-examination as to my motives, and after much earnest prayer, that I came to the conclusion to write this work. I have not taken one single step in the Lord's service, concerning which I have prayed so much. My great dislike to increasing the number of religious books would, in itself, have been sufficient to have kept me forever from it, had I not cherished the hope of being instrumental in this way to lead some of my brethren to value the Holy Scriptures more, and to judge by the standard of the word of God the principles on which they act."
