Opis

'We orphans are the most important kids in the world.' But We All Shine On tells the inspiring story of Paolo Hewitt's journey to track down a group of friends who shared his childhood in care at Burbank Children's Home. Stepping into the past, Paolo hears remarkable stories about how his friends coped with life both in and out of care. We meet Des, the boy who reinvented himself, Norman, the runaway child who crossed a continent, David, the boy who couldn't be heard, and the curious case of Terry - the child who stood in a school field for four days. Paolo hears about his friends' struggles and triumphs, and discovers many things: about himself, about care, but most of all about the indomitable force of the human spirit - even when faced with the most overwhelming odds. Gripping, insightful and refreshingly honest, But We All Shine On: The Remarkable Orphans Of Burbank Children's Home is a worthy companion to the Paolo Hewitt's classic memoir The Looked After Kid: Memoir of a Life in Care as a moving account of the strength and resilience of children.
