After being adopted at the age of 7, I grew up on a very large farm complete with a 9—acre lake. One day while exploring, I came upon a baby raccoon in the drainpipe that ran from the lake. Not seeing the mama raccoon, I picked him up and brought him home with me. He turned out to be a very good pet and every time I went out to his pen I would take him cookies. He would reach right in my pocket and take those cookies, run to his water bowl, wash them off and eat them right up. I had many pets and animals that I took care of. I still miss those simple days.

April has lots of nicknames: there's April Showers, because she's always crying, and April Fool, because of when her birthday falls. Her worst nickname of all, though, is Dustbin Baby. That reminds her of how she started out in life: abandoned in a rubbish bin. When she turns 14, April decides that she must find out who she really is, where she came from and, most importantly, who her real mother is. There have been lots of people she's called Mum, and now she lives with Marion.
