Acerca de esta escucha
London's East End heaves with child prostitutes, hawkers, beggars, and thieves. A solution is offered that sounds perfect - Canadian farmers need workers, their wives want housemaids. Shipping children to this land of plenty offers them a future. Widow Mary Trupper is wary, but the promise of a good life for her children is strong.
©2016 Yvonne Barlow (P)2019 Hookline BooksMiss Constance (a religious, young woman who helps with an orphanage) devises a plan to send children to Canada in hopes of a better life and family. She is well intentioned, but has little perspective concerning the reality of what life will be like for these kids. Eventually, she starts to convince poor families to send their children as well. This book follows the stories of several children, and the hardships and loss they endure. Although they are fictional, the experiences are not.
At the end is a reference to books about some real children and what happened to them after they arrived in Canada.
This is the first book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Laura Pierson ) and I would try another. She did okay narrating, but her style needs polishing. It’s obvious you’re being read to, there is not much differentiation in the way she portrayed the characters speaking styles or emotion. I did not however find it so distracting that I needed to stop listening.
There are no explicit sex scenes, excessive violence or swearing.
