📚 Review 📚 Street Child by Berlie Doherty "Jim Jarvis is a runaway. When his mother dies, he is all alone in the workhouse and desperate to escape. But London in the 1860's is a dangerous and lonely place. Jim faces a constant battle to survive. Just as he finds some friends, he is snatched away and made to work for the remorselessly cruel Grimy Nick, constantly guarded by Nick's vicious dog, Snipe. Will Jim ever be free?" My niece bought me this. She read it in school and thought I would like it and she was right. The book is aimed at 9+ years and gives a good account of what workhouse life and life on the streets was like. A solid 3⭐ read. #avrilreadsbooks2024 #bookreview #streetchild #berliedoherty #booksandtea

La lectura de Querido Nadie como un epistolario inserto en el interior de una novela es la perspectiva de análisis que nos permite hablar de las cartas de Helen como una ficción que posee su propia autonomía frente a la obra de Berlie Doherty (Liverpool, 1991). https://revistacontrapunto.com/epistolario-para-nadie-como-funciona-la-narracion/ • • • • • • #revistacontrapunto #bibliotecaclásica #berliedoherty #epistolarioparanadie #literaturaclásica #lectura #literatura #novela #cuentos #yoleo #megustaleer #reseñas #bookstagramespaña #bookstagram #libros #recomendaciones

What a lovely day at Buxton Crescent! Berlie Doherty signed a book for my youngest. I had the loveliest table buddy in Sue Wilkins (look up Arkwright the Duck!) and had the pleasure of doing two spelling workshops with schools (for Year 4 and Year 6) who asked some of the best questions I have ever heard when they met Berlie Doherty. Good day.

Petit article sur #leslecturesderaksha Ce que j'ai moins aimé en revanche, c'est les sauts à travers les pensées des personnages. Comme lorsqu'ils sont dans le train et qu'après Chris explique que la mère de Helen est venue chez son père pour l'interdire de revenir chez elle, avant qu'il soit de nouveau dans le train. Lors de ce passage il m'a fallut tout de même 3 lectures pour comprendre où j'en étais.

Thanks so much for all your lovely messages over the last couple of days. You really are a lovely bunch ❤️ I’m so grateful for this community and for the escapism of books. ⁣Here’s a little review of a novella I read in December. ⁣ Children of Winter is a children’s story but still an enjoyable read as an adult. Berlie Doherty is a great writer, I really enjoyed some of her other books when I was growing up. ⁣ ⁣ This one is about three children who fall into a time slip and find themselves in the seventeenth century during the time of the plague. The children are sent away by their parents to live in a shepherd’s barn in the forest, hours from civilisation, in the hope that they’ll avoid infection. With a cow, some chickens, a stockpile of dried food and some simple foraging skills, they make a good attempt at survival. But storms, hunters and infected wanderers threaten their safety. ⁣ ⁣ Despite being a children’s book this was quite eerie and I loved the winter forest setting. It was such a page turner too. Unfortunately I don’t think the book is in print anymore, I was lucky enough to find it in a used book store. But if ever you get the chance to read it or any of Berlie Doherty’s other work I would thoroughly recommend!⁣ Do you ever read children’s books? ⁣ #bookstagram #bookreview #bookreviewersuk #bookreviewer #historicalfiction #berliedoherty #childrensbooks #recommendedreading #novella #bookworm #booklover #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram

What was your favourite book of December?⁣ ⁣ Finally getting round to posting my December wrap up. After a few chilled days over Christmas the universe has decided to throw everything at me in the first week of January, life has been chaos lately. ⁣ ⁣ Anyway, here are my December books, I don’t really have a favourite, I enjoyed them equally, giving them all 4🌟⁣ ⁣ The Dead of Winter by Nicola Upson - a cosy Christmas whodunnit set on a Cornish island.⁣ ⁣ The Dark is Rising by Susan Cooper - a fantasy classic. Eleven year old Will comes into powers on his birthday and has to battle against the Dark while searching for twelve hidden ‘signs’. Opens on midwinters eve. Snowy and cosy.⁣ ⁣ Children of Winter by Berlie Doherty - three children fall into a time slip and find themselves in the seventeenth century during the plague. Takes place in an isolated winter forest. Super eerie. ⁣ Happy Friday, hope your life is less chaotic than mine 🙃 ⁣ #bookstagram#booksbooksbooks #bookstack #bookwrapup #winterreads #winterbooks #festivereads #festivebooks #whodunnit #crimebooks #thrillerbooks #whodunnitbooks #cosycrime #nicolaupson #thedeadofwinter #thedarkisrising #susancooper #childrenofwinter #berliedoherty #classicbooks #classicfantasy #fantasybooks #historicalfiction #middlegradebooks #middlegradefantasy #whatiread #bookreviewer #bookreviewersuk #bookworm #booksofinstagram

Book 27 of 2023 📖 Autumn Term class text. Every autumn term in Year 5, we read Street Child and use it to explore and develop reading skills. It's a wonderful piece of historical fiction based on the true story of the young orphan who met Dr Thomas Barnardo and inspired him to dedicate his life to improving the lives of destitute children in Victorian Britain. Through the fictional tale of Jim Jarvis' life prior to meeting 'Barnie', we are able to understand more about the conditions that the lowest class were expected to endure during the 1800's. It's the perfect way to enhance our topic and grasp the children's interest. This is the fourth year I've read it and I still think it a really clever story. #book27of2023 #whatiread #whatihaveread #reader #readersofinstagram #lovereading #lovebooks #paperback #hardback #audible #berliedoherty #childrensfiction #streetchild #truestories #lifestory #victorianbritain #historicfiction #basedonatruestory #drbarnardo #nevergiveup #pauper  #truestory  #friendship  #family #mentalhealthandwellbeing  #bedtimereading #readingforpleasure

#ichträumtevoneinerbestie Ich liebe Märchen in allen Farbschattierungen von finster bis sonnenhell und sammle Märchenbücher (zu den Lieblingsstücken der Sammlung gehört dieses von Jane Ray illustrierte Buch „Die schönsten Märchen“). Wer meine Romane kennt, findet Märchenmotive überall zwischen den Zeilen versteckt, manchmal nur in Metaphern, manchmal in den Biografien der Personen - und manchmal als tragender Teil der Handlung. In „Ich träumte von einer Bestie“ klingen die Märchen besonders deutlich als Echo einer historischen Begebenheit, die heute fast schon selbst zu einer märchenhaften Legende geworden ist: Die rätselhafte, wolfsähnliche „Bestie von Gévaudan“, die im späten 18. Jahrhundert mehr als 100 junge Mädchen, Frauen und Kinder getötet haben soll (das schwarzweiße Bild zeigt eine Illustration aus damaliger Zeit). In meinem Roman verflechte ich die historischen Fakten um die Bestie mit einem düsteren Rotkäppchenmotiv und spanne den Bogen bis zu den „Cyberwölfen“ der heutigen Zeit, die sich in virtuellen Wäldern hinter den Masken von Fake-Profilen verstecken. #wölfe #wolf #cybercrime #datenforensik #frankreichroman #märchenmotiv #labêtedugévaudan #diebestievongévaudan #auvergne #saugues #lemalzieuville #lepuyenvelay #lepetitchaperonrouge #rotkäppchen #märchen #märchenmotive #romanschreiben @harpercollinsde #janerayillustration #janeray #berliedohertybooks #berliedoherty #dieschönstenmärchen @harpercollinsde @verlag_urachhaus

PUBLICATION DAY! It is publication day for the reissue of CHILDREN OF WINTER by @berliedoherty! . Children of Winter was first published in 1985, and I think I'm the fifth illustrator to create a cover for it! This is a timeslip story, set in the Peak District, particularly in the 'plague village' of Eyam and the surrounding land. Children of Winter is about many things: about landscape and the nature of human existence within it, it is about our connection to our history, and also about both isolation and human perseverance at a time of plague - so very relevant to our own times. It is a brilliant, important, and classic piece of children's literature. . Here is my cover art: ink on canvas. Children of Winter is out from @publishinguclan today. I got to work again with brilliant designer, @beckychilcott . #Eyam #peakdistrict #illustration #BerlieDoherty #classicfiction #middlegradebooks #plague #historybooks #originalart #ink #landscapeart

| Throwback Thursday | This was a book that I read in primary school. A book one of my sisters recently reminded me of. It coincided with learning about the Plague & going on a school trip to Eyam in Derbyshire. A trip I remember fondly (because I’ve always been a morbid history nerd). The story sounds so much cooler than I remember it being! So it’ll be getting a re-read 😊 In my final year of primary school, I helped adapt the book into a play to be performed in front of the school… & I portrayed Catherine.. neither career took off 🙃 Alas, here’s the synopsis: Out walking, deep in the Derbyshire hills, Catherine and her family are forced to take shelter from a sudden storm in an old barn. It all seems strangely familiar to Catherine. As the torchlight dims, shadows of the past crowd in, memories of a time hundreds of years ago, when three children took refuge in a barn, not from a storm but from a terrible plague… This gripping and haunting adventure is inspired by the true story of the village of Eyam which in 1665 cut itself off from the rest of Derbyshire, so that no other village would catch the Plague. —————— How cool does that sound?? Also, this was a used book purchase, whose previous life was at the Honeywell Schools Junior Library 🥰 cute. 📖 Children of Winter ✍🏼 Berlie Doherty • Are there any books you remember fondly from primary / elementary school? ☺️ #throwbackthursday #throwback #throwbackthursdays #childhoodbooks #theplague #eyam #childrensbooks #childrensbook #childrenofwinter #berliedoherty #read #readmorebooks #readmore #readeverything #usedbooks #exlibrarybooks #bookstagram #bookstagramuk #readersgonnaread #reader #readerlife #readersofinstagram #bookish #bookishlove #bookishpost #booklover #thetoastyreader

Qotd: Your last 2 star read? This is a story of two girls who are going to be sisters, it shows there life side by side but in totally different circumstances. One is from Africa and other is from Europe. This story based on the era when there is the pandemic of AIDS/HIV is going on and so this African girl Abela is lossing every family member one by one until her uncle sends her to Europe and her life took a drastic turn. On the other side there is Rosa whose mother wants to adopt a child but Rosa think what was the need of another child? And when she got to know her views on life also got changed. It was a good read in a sense that it covers so many topics like foster care, adoption, kindness, cruelness, hopelessness, positivity, child labour, illegal migrations and difficulties of African people in just one book and the writing is also good it explains so many things in easiest way but i didn’t enjoy reading it, i got bore after 10 chap and also it felt kind of dragged to me. 🫠 The only thing that i love about this book is how it talks about the importance of journaling, when you start writing your thoughts, your pain, your memories on paper there is no going back✨ it feels so good to let out all the things that occupied your mind and you don’t even have to be worried about the judgments!🫀 ⭐️⭐️/5! #thegirlwhosawlions #berliedoherty #berliedohertybooks #bookworm #review #bookreview #bookworm #bookish #booktography #bookphotography #bookphoto #bibliophile #bookreader #bookreading #booknerd #2star #explore #explorepage #bookstagrammers2023 #bookstagrammerpakistan #bookstagram #blue #africa #abela #rosa #simba #pandemic #migrants #europe #fostercare

Fabulous historical fiction! 📚 This is a genre very close to our hearts, we love it because allows readers to imagine the human side of history. It’s important to make connections between the past and the present. So here is a selection (just a few!) of some of our favourite #historicalfiction reads… which have you read? And what would you add to our #bookstack?! Mouse Heart by @fleur.hitchcock is an exciting & atmospheric thriller involving a troupe of actors at the time of Queen Anne II. A real page turner right to the end! Darwin’s Dragons by @lindsayagalvin is a fabulous adventure story that moves between Victorian London and the Galapagos, a perfect blend of fantasy and fact. Secret Suffragette by #barbaramitchelhill is a riveting read for those who are fascinated by the suffragette movement, with a strong and relatable female protagonist. When The War Came Home by @lesleyparr11 is a sensitive and compelling read set in Wales just after the end of The Great War, tackling important themes such as shell shock, women’s rights and equality. The Wreck Of The Zanzibar by @michaelmorpugo is a beautiful story of hardship, family and community, set on the stormy Isles of Scilly at the beginning of the last century. The Machine Gunners by #robertwestall; this Carnegie Medal winner explores the themes of loyalty and perseverance is set during World War II on Tyneside. Rosa and the Daring Dog by @meganrix.author is a heartwarming adventure brilliantly bringing the story of Rosa Parks to life. Letters To The Lighthouse by @emcarrollauthor is a thought-provoking and exciting mystery set during the Second World War; an action-packed and emotional story of friendship and courage. Children Of Winter by #berliedoherty; an atmospheric novel in which the main characters find themselves in the seventeenth century when plague was rampant in England. A story of pluck and perseverance, it is rich in detail and emotion. An Elephant In The Garden is another powerful story by @michaelmorpugo set in Dresden as World War II comes to an end. #bookskidslove #middlegradefiction #chapterbooks #childrensliterature #kidsbookreviews #lovebooks

This was my favourite book when I was in Year 5 at Brownlow school Melton Mowbray. I used to check it out of the library at least once a month. Have thought of the story on and off for years but could never quite remember the full title and author. I actually shed a tear when I found it on Amazon!!

📚 - Bilan des lectures d'octobre/novembre/décembre - 📚 Je dois dire que je suis plutôt surprise de ce dernier trimestre de 2022! 😮 12 livres sont sortis de ma PAL et j’en ai emprunté un à ma maman, j’ai donc été très efficace dans mes lectures. Pour autant, je n’ai pas particulièrement pris de plaisir à lire pendant cette période… En effet, même si les livres que je lisais me faisaient envie, j’ai eu quelques déceptions et pas mal de lectures “moyennes”. 😅 Pour autant, sortent du lot quelques romans comme Enterrées vivantes, un thriller addictif et particulièrement bien construit. Le dernier roman de John Green sort aussi du lot car il nous permet de découvrir la sensibilité de l’homme qui se cache derrière cet auteur si connu. 😊 Le témoignage de Bénédicte Chenu sur la schizophrénie de son fils m’a aussi particulièrement touché car nous découvrons ainsi la réalité de cette maladie. En revanche, grosse désillusion avec le roman de James Ellroy; j’attendais tout autre chose de ma lecture. Je suis aussi déçue de la relecture que j’ai faite ce trimestre avec le roman de Berlie Doherty; le souvenir que j’avais de cette lecture est bien différent du ressenti que j’ai maintenant mais cela me montre aussi que j’ai évoluée. 😉 Dans l’ensemble ce fut donc un bon trimestre. Malgré tout, je me fixe comme objectif de l’année 2023 de profiter de mes lectures et de prendre du plaisir à lire plutôt que de lire pour vider la PAL. 😉 Et vous, quel est votre bilan livresque de cette fin d’année? 😊 #book #livres #lectures #romans #bandedessinee #contemporain #temoignage #jeunesse #thriller #historique #romance #bilanlivresque #instabook #bookstagram #bookaddict #booklover

#decemberreads According to Goodreads I read 91 books this year which is a big improvement on my initial plan of 40. I read some absolute crap and some very good things and some things in between. It still terrifies me that I will never read all of the books in existence but I’m making reasonable inroads… • #books #bookstagram #readersofinstagram #reading #susancooper #berliedoherty #thechaletschool #christmasreading

❤️ - Cher inconnu - publié chez @gallimard_jeunesse - ⏳️ Un roman que j'ai déjà lu étant plus jeune, pour lequel je gardais un bon souvenir et que je voulais redécouvrir quelques années après mais pour lequel j'ai été assez déçue… 😅 Dans mon souvenir j'avais trouvé ce livre très percutant pour des adolescents mais aujourd'hui, même si le thème général du roman est très intéressant, j'ai trouvé ma lecture avec molle. Au delà du thème général, j'ai trouvé très intéressant d'avoir une différence flagrante dans la manière dont réagissent les parents. En revanche, je trouve dommage que les changements de point de vue entre Chris et Helen ne soient pas plus marqués que cela. On comprend bien que ce n'est plus le même personnage qui parle mais un changement visuel (sur la police par exemple) aurait été le bienvenue à mon goût. En bref, un roman jeunesse qui aborde un thème assez important je pense mais qui ne m'aura pas totalement convaincue. 😉 Et vous, lisez vous des romans jeunesse? Cela vous arrive-t-il de relire un livre de votre adolescence? 😊 Résumé: La vie est facile et légère pour Chris et Helen. Ils s'aiment. Quand Helen découvre qu'elle est enceinte, elle n'a que seize ans. L'univers bascule. A qui parler, que faut-il faire? Elle entreprend de se confier à cet être qui prend peu à peu possession de sa vie, de son corps. Cet inconnu qu'elle rejette tout d'abord puis qu'elle apprend à accepter. Ses relations avec Chris, avec ses parents, avec ses amis se transforment, ses certitudes sont ébranlées. Rarement roman traitant d'un sujet aussi essentiel n'a été plus juste, plus fin, et personnages plus attachants. Cher Inconnu a reçu la prestigieuse Carnegie Medal en Grande-Bretagne, et le prix Lecture-Jeunesse en France. #book #livre #lecture #cherinconnu #berliedoherty #jeunesse #instabook #bookstagram #bookaddict #booklover

Street Child, Berlie Doherty The is the backstory to Doctor Barnardo and why he built his children’s homes. Based on the story of a little boy who grows up in complete poverty. He loses his Mother and both his sisters are rehomed. He is alone, homeless. He flits from place to place, earning measly wages, eventually meeting Dr. Barnardo. The story of this unfortunate boy, so similar to many other children at the time, inspires Barnardo to open his first home to help these poor children and give them a chance at life. This story really is heartwarming ☺️ #streetchild #berliedoherty #basedonatruestory #wineandbooks #drbarnardo #barnardos #victorian #homeless #poverty #essentialmodernclassics #readingtime

Our recent book stack! These are read to a 6 and 4 year old (girls). As you can see, there is a clear favourite at the moment and The Secret Seven they are devouring and already asking to read them again and we’ve not finished the series yet! They are also continuing to love Helen Peters books which focus on animal adventures and veterinary care of injured animals. A Deer Called Dotty didn’t disappoint! Olga Da Polga - adventures of a Guinea pig. The reviews were great but we haven’t found it that captivating. It’s been slow going! Alice in wonderland - well it’s quirky as expected! Full of fun and madness! Street Child by Berlie Doherty was a bit heavier going than we expected and the girls wanted to stop reading it as we got about half way through. Mainly as the mum in the book dies and 6yo is very aware of death at the moment and struggling with the concept. The book is based on a true story and set in the victorian era and inevitably would lead to a positive ending as it’s the story of the boy who inspired Dr Barnardo to start a free school for poor children in these times. A good insightful and educational story for a slightly older child studying the victorian period? Importantly books are about enjoyment and are very personal and emotive based on different tastes, opinions and life stage! The girls were worried to say they didn’t like Street Child as their expectation was books needed to be finished! I have reassured them that it’s totally ok to not complete one, and books are a bit like food. You might try it and dislike it, and never like it. Or you might try it, not like it, but one day try it again and enjoy it! And some you’ll LOVE come what may and want to read over and over like you want to eat your favourite food! It’s in the tasting all kinds of different genres, authors and topics that they will find their own love of books. Sometimes you try something you wouldn’t imagine you like and then it surprises you! Just like the satisfaction of serving your child’s favourite meal, it can feel just as good to find their perfect recipe in a book that they can’t get enough of! 💕 📖 #childrensbooks #booklovers

♻️ 3 libri che rileggerei. Sono parecchi i libri che ho letto. Molti di più quelli che aspettano nella wish list, epure me ne vengono in mente tre che rileggerei. Voi accantonereste la lista per ripetere una lettura? Per quale autore lo fareste? Io per: ✔️"Storie di meraviglia" scelte da Berlie Doherty. Le ricordo dark e agghiaccianti. Mi sono rimasti impressi i piedi inchiodati al pavimento. ✔️Novecento di Baricco, perché è un caleidoscopio di suoni. ✔️Shakespeare, perché voglio dare una seconda possibilità a Sogno d'una notte di mezza estate.

🇬🇧 Вторую новеллу Берли Доерти -«Far from home» я прочитал на английском. Как и первая книга, эта история основанная на реальных событиях в Лондоне. В книге повествование о приключениях и испытаниях сестёр Джима Джарвиса (герой рассказа «Street child») Эмили и Лиззи, которые после смерти матери остались у её подруги Роузи. Чтобы ни быть замеченными, им приходилось оставаться в кухне снизу, но всё-таки, когда их увидела жена хозяина коттеджа и сообщила своему мужу, им пришлось уйти. Они не хотели попасть в рабочий дом, в результате поверили странной женщине в карете, которая появилась из ниоткуда и обещала, что даст детям не только работу, но и заботу. Лучше было бы пережить то, что пережил их брат ДжейДжей (я начну называть так Джима), так как «райская жизнь», которая предназначалась для Эмили и Лиззи оказалась обычной выдумкой. Им приходилось работать в самых опасных условиях, и даже, бывало, чуть ли не взрываться от счастья в единственный день для отдыха – воскресенье... Один раз, проходя мимо станка, Лиззи не успела уклониться от острой иглы, тем самым смертельно поранила себя и потеряла много крови. С помощью дочери владельца мельницы, мисс Харрис, Лиззи восстановилась, но при этом потеряла память. Дабы помочь, добрая мисс Харрис некоторое время ухаживает за ней. Тем временем на самой мельнице начался некий спор или рассказы, о том, что Робин, самый главный в шайке Эмми и Лиззи, хочет его сжечь. В день перед огнём Эмили предупреждает хозяина мельницы мистера Блэкфорда об опасности и спасает жизни людей, которые там работают. Под конец, когда мельницу снова перестраивают, девочкам попадается шанс встретиться с неким Доктором Бернардо, который, если помните, ухаживал и следил за «детьми с улиц», в том числе и за ДжейДжейем, братом двоих сестёр. Как Вы думаете в конце рассказа сёстры смогли увидеться с Джимом, единственным братом?

“Fiction is the combination of I remember and let’s pretend.” —Berlie Doherty To me, the “I remember” is mostly an emotions thing. I remember this feeling, so let’s pretend someone else who has this feeling is thrown into a situation and see what happens. And that’s what makes it resonate with readers, especially young readers. What do you think?👇🏼 #fiction #emotionaltruth #heartonthepage #berliedoherty #kidlit #amwriting #amwritingfiction #writingtips #thursdaythoughts #letspretend #iremember

I’ve seen this labeled as MG & then as YA. I can’t find the characters ages, so I’m just going to hope upper MG & post it lol It sounds like a deeply moving story. STUNNING cover front & back by the amazing @rachaeladean too!💜 Synopsis: Grace put out her hand, almost touching the mirror. Her image did the same. 'There's another world in there.' 'We could float in and out of it.' Deep in a Derbyshire valley live two girls, twins, so alike that even their family can't tell them apart. But tragedy is waiting. When the valley is sold to be flooded for a huge dam, the villagers are forced to leave their homes. Deep secrets are uncovered. New characters enter their lives and desires, love and grief come to the surface. #deepsecret #berliedoherty #rachaeldoherty #andersenpress #middlegrade #middlegradebooks #middlegradereads #middlegradeillustration #middlegradecovers #middlegradefiction #middlegradehistoricalfiction #middlegradefamily #middlegrademarch #middlegradelit #mglit #mgbooks #mgbookstagram #mgreads #middlegradebookstagram #mgbook #middlegradebook #ireadmg #beautifulbooks #booktubers #bookstagrammer #booklover #uppermiddlegrade #uppermg #booksuggestions #booktuber @berliedoherty @andersenpress

Four contenders for @giliondumas #europeanreadingchallenge I recently read Mermaid Singing by Charmian Clift, an interesting book packed full of detail about life, traditions, attitudes and culture on the Greek island of Kalymnos, where she, her husband and two young children lived. From the Greek islands, I will travel to Paris (via Manhattan) to continue the memoir of Colette Rossant, then pause for a short stay in Italy with Eric Newby (which I’ve visited once before but have completely forgotten about), finally reaching Ireland to be reunited with Requiem, which I first read about three years ago. #mermaidsinging #charmianclift #requiem #berliedoherty #returntoparis #coletterossant #asmallplaceinitaly #ericnewby #bookstagram #booklover #memoir #travelwriting #readersofig #booklover #bibliophile #readersofinstagram #bookishtravel #bookchallenge

🇬🇧 Трогательная книга Берли Доерти «Street child» — это история, основанная на реальных событиях. Действия происходят в викторианском Лондоне, когда бедным семьям было тяжело жить. История начинается с того, что семья Джима Джарвиса не смогла оплатить аренду и суровый арендатор выгнал их из дома. Мама дочек отправляет к своей подруге Роузи, а она с Джимом попадает в рабочий дом, где, к сожалению, умирает. Джим находит себе друга по имени Тип, и ему рассказывает о своём плане побега. Первым делом он хотел отыскать своих сестёр и направился к дому подружки мамы Роузи. Но он находит её не в коттедже, а в маленьком домике. Роузи просит его уйти, но тот отказывается и помогает ей немного подработать. Он даже успевает найти себе друга по имени Шримп. Роузи рассказывает ему об её деде, который ненавидит детей. Тот и находит Джима и отдаёт в руки мужчине Нику Гримп, который заставляет Джима работать без отдыха, перевозя угль, и у мальчика пропадает надежда выйти на волю. Однажды, Джим сбегает в город через ходячий цирк и встречается со своим старым другом Шримпом, который оказывается в ужасном состоянии. Его обвинили в краже, а потом ещё и избили. Шримп умирает от потери крови, и последней надеждой Джима остаётся церковная школа, которая была неподалёку. Он знакомится там с доктором Барни. История жизни Джима его очень затронула и доктор Барнардо в будущем создаёт детские дома. А вы часто посещаете детские дома? Однажды, я подружился с озорным мальчуганом, когда отвозил им подарки.

'Ik had willen sterven, dacht ik, maar toen ik de leeuwen zag, wist ik dat ik wilde leven.' Het aangrijpende verhaal van Abela 🦁 Ik kocht dit boek bij een uitverkoop van de bibliotheek, en wat ben ik blij dat het boek mij toen uitgekozen heeft als zijn nieuwe eigenaar. Het verhaal Abela wordt verteld vanuit het leven van twee heel verschillende meisjes. Abela woont in Tanzania, samen met Bibi, haar grootmoeder. Abela raakte pas haar moeder kwijt, die net zoals alle andere familieleden overleed aan aids. Plots duikt haar oom Thomas op, die wilt Abela perse meenemen naar Engeland. Abela's verhaal wordt afgewisseld met dat van Rosa. De dertienjarige Rosa woont in Groot-Brittannië samen met haar mama. Contact met haar vader heeft ze niet, maar dat vindt Rosa allemaal prima. Zij en haar mama zijn beste vriendinnen en doen alles samen. Maar wat als Rosa's mama er toch nog graag een tweede dochter bij wil? De verhalen van de twee meisjes maken het samen tot een prachtig geheel. Het verhaal leest zo vlot, ik kon niet stoppen en las het in één avond uit. Ik was heel erg vaak ontroerd en aangedaan, vooral door het intense verhaal van Abela zelf. Een meisje van negen, alleen op de wereld...Maar ook Rosa heeft het moeilijk met de wens van haar mama. Is ze niet goed genoeg meer als enige dochter? Berlie Doherty weet je te raken met haar woorden, tot tranen toe. Een aangrijpend en intens verhaal dat ik zeker iedereen kan aanraden om te lezen. 📖 Mijn volledige recensie vind je via link in bio. #abela #berliedoherty #clavis #tanzania #hiv #mensensmokkel #adoptie #anneliesleest #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookreview #bookreviewer #review #readersofinstagram #readersofig #readersofinsta #readers #booknerd #nevernotreading #bookaholic #bookaddict #bookaddiction #bookaddicted #reading #readingislife #readingtime #readingbooks

Hola, guerrero@s? un tema bastante complejo pero interesante, la forma en que #berliedoherty nos narra un embarazo adolecente Helen. La autora a las cartas a “ #queridonadie” donde escribe negación, el miedo, los remordimientos, su relación con Chris y su futuro como todo esto cambia sus vidas con la visión de ir a la universidad.  La autora nos sumerge poco a poco en ese mundo de los diesiseis además de ser una lectura bastante ágil y corta. ¿Alguna ha tenido ese horrible susto que tienes que ir corriendo a la farmacia, pensar en tantos y diferentes situaciones que tienes que pasar? 4.0/5 Nueve meses - @camilamx Te leo en comentarios, ¿Qué te pareció? ¿Qué canción te recuerda esta historia? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, warriors? a rather complex but interesting subject, the way #berkiedoherty tells us about a teenage pregnancy. Helen the author to letters to “ #queridonadie” (Dear Nobody) where she writes denial, fear, remorse, her relationship with Chris and her future as all this changes their lives with the vision of going to college.  The author immerses us little by little in that world of 16’s  in addition to being a fairly agile and short reading. Have any of you had that horrible scare you have to run to the pharmacy, think about so many different situations you have to go through?  4.0/5 Nueve meses - @camilamx I read you in comments, what do you think? What song does this story remind you of? #books #libros #fantasy #fantasía #reallife #bookstagram #bookish #bookstagramespaña #bookstagramusa #bookstagramcolombia #bookstagramworld #booklover #bookworm #leer #read #literature #pregnant #synopsis #readtime #bookadict #queridonadie #berkiedoherty #thankfull

#WarGirls #MelvinBurgess #BerlieDoherty #AnneFine #TheresaBreslin #SallyNicholls #MaryHooper 1914: war has broken out across Europe and beyond. Nothing will ever be the same again for those caught up in the conflict. This collection of short stories explores how the First World War changed and shaped the lives of women forever. A courageous nurse risks her life at the Front Line; a young woman discovers independence and intrigue in wartime London; and a grief-stricken widow defends her homeland amidst the destruction of war. Through these and other tales, War Girls presents a moving portrait of loss and grief, and of hope overcoming terrible odds. The First World War brought many changes in the lives of women. It is often represented as having had a wholly positive impact, opening up new opportunities in the world of work and strengthening their case for the right to vote. The reality is more complex. Not all of the opportunities the war provided to women were entirely positive or long lasting. However,even before the formation of the women’s services, some pioneering women made their own way to the front to help the war effort. In 1914, when the War Office turned down an offer of help from Scottish doctor Elsie Inglis with the words, ‘My good lady, go home and sit still’, she set up the Scottish Women’s Hospitals on the fighting fronts. At the time - and in subsequent years - it was felt that the losses amounted to a 'lost generation' of young men. During the 1920s, newspaper headlines talked of 'surplus' women who would never find husbands. While many middle class women did remain unmarried due to the lack of available men in the relatively narrow social sphere in which they moved, some women in this period remained single by choice or by financial necessity.Women in World War I were mobilized in unprecedented numbers on all sides. The vast majority of these women were drafted into the civilian work force to replace conscripted men or work in greatly expanded munitions factories. Thousands served in the military in support roles, but in Turkey, Russia, Germany and other countries many saw combat as well.
