The Forgotten Home Child by Genevieve Graham
5.0
Another excellent book by Genevieve Graham. This fictionally story tells the life story of a British Home Child.
Prior to reading this book, I had not heard of the term “British Home Child”, as it is a part of Canadian history that is not thought in schools although it occurred for approximately 80 years until 1948. I was shocked to learn that “approximately 12 percent of Canada’s population—more than four million Canadians—are descended from British Home Children” (excerpt copied from this book).
