Jacob's Story by Louise Allen
A 5-year-old boy is discovered on a farm after reports of animal cruelty and neglect. No one outside the family seemed to know of the existence of little Jacob. With the support of veteran social worker, Mary, foster mum Louise begins the fight to get Jacob the support he needs.
From an early age, Louise was adopted into a family who from the beginning said they didn't want her. Her first book Thrown Away Child reveals the abuse and neglect she and a fellow adopted child suffered at the hands of their adopted mother Barbara. Ten years ago, Louise and her family became a fostering family. They have looked after over twenty children, some have stayed long term. This led to the bestselling series Thrown Away Children where Louise is inspired by the stories of children in the care system. Within days the book became a bestseller.
Louise now draws on her experience to write a new series of 'How to' books about adoption, fostering and parenting. How to Adopt a Child is the unvarnished truth about adoption. Louise is well known for "saying it as it is" so not only is it witty and engaging, it also empowers adopters to feel confident and in control and to know where to turn to for help.
