Invisible Child

Read Invisible Child Storyline:

Few books are actually written by the victim, but this is one. This is a true story written by me. My name is Mary and I was born to London poverty.
Inspiring and uplifting, this book has it all. An emotional roller-coaster with an unexpected twist of romance that comes but once in a lifetime.
Begging for food at the age of 8, with my 4 year old sister I starve.
It is a battle of wits, and a struggle to survive the horror of hunger. Betrayed, my life falls apart. The legacy of my childhood I am abandoned alone and cast out onto the streets, a single parent homeless with a child of my own. It is the story of heartbreak and struggle, invisible to the welfare state. Yet something within her fights, and she breaks free of her miserable life.
**Review
This book reads like a Lifetime movie. It's a page turner, but in a sad and heartwrenching way. Anyone who's ever gone hungry, witnessed child abuse first hand, or even dealt with the horrible reality of addiction can relate to parts of this. Others can get a glimpse into a world most of us wish didn't exist. All of us could learn strength of character from this young girl. Wow..
From the Author
I couldn't write the book until now. It has taken me 30 years to come to terms with the shooting of my best friend. It was on my birthday as if she was trying to tell me something. Life was bad for my friend Joyce, but it was far worse for me, and she never knew. I have to tell the truth for all those out there who lose hope in life.
