The Waiting Child By Cindy Champnella


The Waiting Child.... I am not sure exactly when I first read this book before I rec'd my referral of my daughter. It is a true look into life in an orphanage thru the eyes of a girl abandoned at the age of two. This book is a straight thur read. I read and could not put it down,even though I knew there was a happy ending. It is a tough to handle story especially when you have a child still waiting in a Chinese orphanage.Although I was amazed at how naive about life the mom could be I know many people who are shelter from "real"life in their everyday lives.Its a good book , a great story, and a testimony to the endurung spirit of a little girl lost.

The start

I would like to start keeping a journal of my reading, both the fluff and the write stuff. Reading has been an escape from life since I was a lil bit and had my first library card when I was 3.I read on my breaks at work and usually clear a book and a half a week. I will be joining a Japanese reading challenge
