Stories About Orphans

by George MacDonald, Margaret Oliphant, Hannah More

Overview

Life can be difficult. We all experience hurdles, obstacles and problems that get in the way and may limit our opportunities. But we can usually count on the steadfast and loving support of others. We get that comfort from our parents and pass it on through the generations. Sadly, some will not get that unconditional love and bond from their onset or their early years. Growing up as an orphan is to know you are different and, on some levels at least, alone. Surviving and thriving with this can damage a life or be used as fuel to achieve a whole, rich, and nurtured life.

In this volume our authors use this as their theme as they construct moving stories from bleak beginnings to lives with surprising outcomes.
