About this listen
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. It is a compelling and inspirational story. This book gives a voice to the many children who grew up unhappily in care.©2017 Louise Allen (P)2018 Simon & Schuster Audio

Excellent book
This story is very moving. Well written and narrated. It is sad to hear that situations like this actually exist. But they do. And this woman has gathered the negatives and made positives of her life. I commend you. Thank you for sharing your story.

Heartbreaking
Although horrible throughout there is a beautiful lesson of surviving and thriving!! Louise has learned to survive by living in an imaginary place and finding the few joys available to her ! She grows to a beautiful person !
Thanks for this story !

It was a very powerful read!!
Such an empowering real life of hardships and abuse. It gives me hope that others will read this and find peace or realness in what goes on behind closed doors. To never judge people. Great book!!!
