Book Nobody s Child

Download or read book Nobody s Child written by John Robinson and published by Monarch Books. This book was released on 2012-07-18 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Robinson had the worst possible start in life. Taken into care at four months old, he was left in abusive foster homes for most of his childhood. At fourteen he was sent to a detention centre for arson. Gravitating towards a life of crime, he moved from borstal to the streets to psychiatric hospital, a scarred, tattooed, broken and angry young man. Yet God had plans for John. He would go on to run the Eden bus ministry: frontline youth buses which travel the toughest parts of Manchester with the gospel. The teams befriend young people and sometimes accompany them to court. 'My passion is, and I pray always will be, for those who feel downtrodden, hurt and rejected,' says John Robinson. 'They feel like scum, and wake up each day with nothing and no one. I know exactly what that feels like.'

  • Pages : 457 pages

Download or read book The Unwanted Child written by Joel F. Harrington and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-12-15 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The baby abandoned on the doorstep is a phenomenon that has virtually disappeared from our experience, but in the early modern world, unwanted children were a very real problem for parents, government officials, and society. The Unwanted Child skillfully recreates sixteenth-century Nuremberg to explore what befell abandoned, neglected, abused, or delinquent children in this critical period. Joel F. Harrington tackles this question by focusing on the stories of five individuals. In vivid and poignant detail, he recounts the experiences of an unmarried mother-to-be, a roaming mercenary who drifts in and out of his children’s lives, a civic leader handling the government’s response to problems arising from unwanted children, a homeless teenager turned prolific thief, and orphaned twins who enter state care at the age of nine. Braiding together these compelling portraits, Harrington uncovers and analyzes the key elements that link them, including the impact of war and the vital importance of informal networks among women. From the harrowing to the inspiring, The Unwanted Child paints a gripping picture of life on the streets five centuries ago.

Book excerpt: In the tradition of Don Brown's critically acclaimed, full-color nonfiction graphic novels The Great American Dust Bowl and Sibert Honor winning Drowned City, The Unwanted is an important, timely, and eye-opening exploration of the ongoing Syrian refugee crisis, exposing the harsh realities of living in, and trying to escape, a war zone. Starting in 2011, refugees flood out of war-torn Syria in Exodus-like proportions. The surprising flood of victims overwhelms neighboring countries, and chaos follows. Resentment in host nations heightens as disruption and the cost of aid grows. By 2017, many want to turn their backs on the victims. The refugees are the unwanted. Don Brown depicts moments of both heartbreaking horror and hope in the ongoing Syrian refugee crisis. Shining a light on the stories of the survivors, The Unwanted is a testament to the courage and resilience of the refugees and a call to action for all those who read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the continuing tradition of bestselling author V.C. Andrews, The Unwelcomed Child explores the eternal question: Why do the ones we love hurt us the most? Desperate to be a normal teenager, beautiful young Elle Edwards must uncover the truth of her birth to find the familial love she craves. MY MOTHER HAD LOOKED INTO THE FACE OF EVIL SO MANY TIMES SHE KNEW WHAT IT WAS. IT WAS ME. I WAS BORN WITHOUT A SOUL. . . . An edgy new novel from the author who shocked a generation with her groundbreaking Flowers in the Attic saga, The Unwelcomed Child is V.C. Andrews at her surprising, sensual, and unforgettable best. Elle Edwards grew up believing that because of her mother's sinful ways she was born without a soul, and that's why she was abandoned to the care of Grandmother Myra and Grandfather Prescott. Raised in a virtual prison to ensure that her inherent evil will not taint her vigilant guardians, Elle's days are occupied with homeschooling, strict religious studies, and vigorous housekeeping in the devout couple's upstate New York home. Elle knows practically nothing of the outside world, even as she emerges as a young woman with impressive artistic talent. Myra's strict prohibitions are immovable, but Prescott acknowledges Elle's special gifts, and gradually persuades Myra to allow the girl some time outdoors to sketch from nature. But when she makes a secret, forbidden connection to vacationers at the nearby lake--a handsome boy and his precocious twin sister--Elle's world will shatter as her past meets her present. Will learning the truth about her mother send her plummeting to hell? Maybe some discoveries are forbidden for a reason . . . and maybe Elle will wish she never knew why she has always been The Unwelcomed Child.

Book excerpt: This book is based on the Autobiography of my dear friend and the problems he is facing till now in Indian society as he is an unwanted person means a boy of the third gender who sees many things in life and how he copes with it despite the various difficulty he was going through right from childhood days and hoe he controls his emotions in his life is discussed in my book. My dear friend life happenings and story of his life I have written here and apart from that I have also written about the third gender who is facing neglection by our Indian society and called as sin to human society and how we treat them by giving all kind of abstracts for the third gender. I have mentioned religious names of good for better understanding and solutions too. This book is dedicated to my dear friend and all members of the third Gender. I want that everyone should read it and feel the pain for third gender class while reading this book and help and take care of these people. knowingly or unknowingly this class is also a member of Indian society and they also have the rights like us in India. With this book I appealed to central govt concerned department who looks for the welfare of economically weaker sections and women and children rights .they should look for third gender rights too and I hope through this book who so ever is reading will help them to get there rights done if they know personally also to Our BJP govt and department separately for them the third gender rights Act should be established so that no third gender people can blame themselves and curse themselves and not put into doing wrong things as mentioned in the book. Section 377 is a historical section which is passed for third gender persons but still, now they are being treated badly and not give them there rights just because of third gender persons.
