FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR

Thrown Away Child is a memoir covering Louise Allen’s abusive childhood in a foster home, how she survived - using her love of art as a sanctuary - and how she hopes to right old wrongs now by fostering children herself and campaigning for the improvement of foster care services. It is a compelling and inspirational story. This book gives a voice to the many children who grew up unhappily in care.©2017 Louise Allen (P)2018 Simon & Schuster Audio

Good book

It was a good book and very sad and how.kids in the system don't get checked on often.

Heartbreaking and Captivating

This story was just absolutely gut wrenching. You don't want to hear it but you also can't stop listening.

Excellent!

This book made me cry. This child went through terrible, horrible treatment. I can’t even imagine how someone can treat a child like this.

She had my attention from the beginning

I am so sorry things like this happen to children. This book is an eye opening book about how bad a child’s life can be. I wish I could scoop up every single unwanted, abandoned and abused child and love them and take care of them.
Thank you for sharing your story with us.

Could have been my story…

Great story. A lot of the abuse she endured was the same in my childhood. It was almost like listening to my own childhood at times but I lived with my biological family and was finally rescued by my foster family.
