The Throwaway Children

By: Diney Costeloe

Narrated by: Anne Dover

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.

Emotional story

This book and the performance take you all of your emotions. It really makes you think. So sad that some children were/are treated so poorly and what a difference 1 person can make in a child's life.

Keeps you listening

The story starts slow, but all of a sudden you find yourself wondering what will happen next.

Through strength we will survive

The sheer determination to survive was well written and lived by Rita. Throughly enjoyed this book. The characters were fully developed. The protagonist we cheered for while hoping the antagonist would eventually be discovered and punished. Look forward to the next book from this author.

Could not stop listening!

I loved every moment of this book. The narrator brings it to life! The story keeps making you wonder what’s coming next. I would highly recommend this novel.
