Book excerpt: Gritty, heartrending and unputdownable – the story of two sisters sent first to an English, then an Australian orphanage in the aftermath of World War II. Rita and Rosie Stevens are only nine and five years old when their widowed mother marries a violent bully called Jimmy Randall and has a baby boy by him. Under pressure from her new husband, she is persuaded to send the girls to an orphanage – not knowing that the papers she has signed will entitle them to do what they like with the children. And it is not long before the powers that be decide to send a consignment of orphans to their sister institution in Australia. Among them – without their family's consent or knowledge – are Rita and Rosie, the throwaway children. What readers are saying about THE THROWAWAY CHILDREN: 'I haven't felt so immersed in a book in a very long time and have recommended to just about everyone' 'Heart wrenching' 'A truly powerful book'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty years into the future, a united collection of Mexican drug cartels are about to invade Arizona, led by a charismatic but psychotic leader. After years of intense and meticulous preparation, which included paying off or killing all the right people on either side of the border, the cartel is ready to make its move. Before the U.S. government can seal the border, hundreds of thousands of cartel men infiltrate the country as far north as Phoenix. Enter Mac, a ten-year-old boy with unlimited potential and incredible gifts to offer the world. But these gifts stem from an unthinkable childhood; he was molded by cruel and neglectful parents in an effort to enhance his unparalleled capabilities. The harsh tests inflicted by his parents consist of a series of elaborate punishments, seemingly inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche's quotation: "That, which does not kill us, makes us stronger." It is during one of these tests, stranded in the Mexican desert, that Mac stumbles upon an ancient codex by a pre-colonial Spanish philosopher, whose parched pages contain the secret to achieving a perfect utopian society out of a self-destructive mankind. Representing the inverse morality, the cartel will stop at nothing to destroy the codex and the child that holds it. The hunt is on. About the Author: Michael "Mac" Centuori is about to graduate from the University of Arizona with a degree in Latin American studies and a minor in Spanish. Raised in Phoenix, he now lives in Tucson. He is working on the sequel, The Throw Away Kids. Publisher's website: http: //www.sbpra.com/MichaelMacCentuori

Download or read book Throw Away Child Finding Home written by Jacque Paul and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From time to time, we stray from our core values, our safe place, our home. Perhaps we choose to wander because life is changing; perhaps it's a fear of staying. Whatever the reason, self-concept is included in the journey, and we sometimes wonder if God knows where we are. A musically gifted child, Anna Katjea, Kate Winslow's life began in West Virginia. The Winslow house wasn't a happy place, and Mama sometimes had bruises and cried because of Kate. The day finally came when Mama said she had to leave. Fifteen years old, and after asking a friend for help, Kate moved to Paris for music reasons. By the time she turned thirty-five, life had taken many turns. She thought she was in love once. After all, he told her he loved her. It was a lie, and Kate hid her heart. Later, she married her manager and business partner. It wasn't an ideal arrangement, and he divorced her for someone he said he loved. Kate kept his name, scoffed at love, hardened her heart, and asked God if He cared. Defiant and cynical, she feels unworthy of knowing a holy God, and it's difficult to reconcile sins when they keep coming to mind. She says she's sorry. Is He listening? Can she trust Him to forgive her? Or does she have to heal herself, take care of herself, like she did as a child? Seeking answers in academia, Kate becomes Dr. Anna K. Moyer, psychologist. She believes her home resides in the place she's standing, and she's asking God, "Will I ever get it right?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I cannot even now say how many nights I lay in bed and hugged my pillow to me, burying my face in it, and cried and whispered, Mommy, Mommy or Daddy, Daddy, where are you? I would pray that somehow they could hear me. Sometimes even as young as I was, I felt so desperate, so alone, and I knew Mom and Dad would never come for us. I would lie in my bed in the darkness at night and pray so hard, and I felt that not even God heard me anymore. ---------- There were so many different homes we were in, and we were so young. We became little throwaways, little sheep. Sometimes we were able to stay with our father but only for a very short time. Whenever Dad could not pay for our board, he was in jail, or sick, we were moved again and again. Always obliging and quiet, learning quickly that crying and begging and clinging to Dad did not help us. We had our times to laugh as children, who even in the worst of their situations can do, and our time to weep as we did all too often. Thank God we had each other, two little sisters against the world that at times seemed too big and scary and extremely uncertain.

Download or read book Educating the Throw-Away Children: What We Can Do to Help Students at Risk written by Joyce Taylor Gibson and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1997 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Throw-away" children fail academically, behave poorly in class, or refuse to follow directions; they are the special-needs kids, the minority-language kids, the disruptive kids, the pregnant kids, the emotionally disturbed kids, even the passive, forgotten kids. By combining practical strategies, research, and personal stories, this volume presents a number of successful programs for children at-risk, including: a charter school designed to address the needs of expelled middle school children; a Vancouver school dedicated to teaching the native Indian children previously educated on reservations; and a program for high-school dropouts with a competency-based curriculum and a shared leadership approach. The authors share the knowledge gained through their experiences: how educators can collaborate with the other significant adults in a child's life to lay the groundwork for academic improvement; how to reengage teenagers who have given up on school; and how high expectations and innovative instructional techniques can be powerful tools for creating student success. This volume of New Directions for School Leadership demonstrates that educators can personalize the schooling process and facilitate students' growth into intelligent, resourceful problem solvers of the future. This is the 6th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for School Leadership. For more information on the series, please see the Journals and Periodicals section.

Book excerpt: Out of the window of my pastor's study, I see children dropped off on the far side of the parking lot. The parents fear I will come out and speak to them again. It is sad, but then I see the children run to the church building. They know where the love is! So many children seem to be inconveniences to their parents or treated as property by their parents. We are appalled when this is the culture of a distant country, but this is happening here. Many have mercy on the children of these parents--as we should. Many do not speak the truth to the parents of these children. What is that truth? So many have abandoned parenting--forsaken the duties that accompany the gift from God that we call children. We who know better have done little about addressing the root of the problem. That together, those who threw in the parenting towel and those who standby and watch have created a generation of throwaway kids. Are we content to just stand by and do nothing? Are we concerned enough to get involved?
