In New York City, in April of 1874, a most unusual event took place. A severely abused nine-year-old girl named Mary Ellen Wilson became the first child in America to be rescued from an abusive home. She had been beaten, burned, slashed with scissors, locked in a closet, and had never been outside of her tenement home in over 7 years. Thanks to the concern and dedication of a missionary named Etta Wheeler, the child was finally saved from her cruel captors. Henry Bergh's ASPCA - yes, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals - was instrumental in securing her rescue. When no other agencies would become involved, the ASPCA used its power and influence to not only save Mary Ellen, but to charter the first organization of its kind to prevent cruelty to children, the NYSPCC - the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. This book remains the only book that tells the dramatic story of Mary Ellen's life and rescue.

She did all different voices, which I enjoyed. I wish more time was spent on the story of Mary Ellen a bit more, but it was, overall, a good book!

Good narration

I find it so hard to believe anyone would mistreat a child. Poor defenseless innocence stolen!

So disturbing

Incredibly written and wonderfully performed. A truly in depth view into how some children and animals were treated in the early days of American history. This book brought me to tears more than once. Thank you for this Mr. Shelman.

Hope for mankind

Not realizing I was reading a book about how two organizations I am very fond of and support, how they were started! The timeline of the story amazed me! How one organization started another!
If you like historically true stories, this may be the book for you! I believe it is worth the read or listen!

Loved this book!
