Synopsis
Thrown Away Child is a memoir covering Louise Allen's abusive childhood in a foster home, how she survived - using her love of art as a sanctuary - and how she hopes to right old wrongs now by fostering children herself and campaigning for the improvement of foster care services. A foster home should be a refuge for children with a troubled start in life, but this was not the case for Louise Allen. It is a compelling and inspirational story. This book gives a voice to the many children who grew up unhappily in care.
