About this listen

Abby's Story is the second book in the Thrown Away Children series by author and foster mum Louise Allen.

She doesn't want this baby. She can't look after this baby. She will never be able to love this baby. Little Abby's life begins badly, then just gets worse. Now foster mum Louise and her family must help her deal with the truth of her past to give her the chance of a future.

Sad story

Great book, such a sad story for a young child to have such a bad start in life. Our care system is not not good enough.

Excellent read

A true story that shows the pit falls in the fostering system. Well written and shows that even the best foster carers sometimes can’t achieve what they would like but not for the want of trying

Good story.

I enjoyed this book but felt it was dragged out a bit at times. Well read but I got a little bit bored at times.

what a shame

my heart broke for little Abbi, for her to be adopted then tossed away like a piece of rubbish, to be hurt over and over again,
