Martha's Miracles: Life is What You Make it - Paperback

by Elizabeth Slenker (Author)

Everyone has hopes and dreams as a child. Some children are better able to realize their dreams because of their family and economic conditions. Some children dream big, but due to circumstances in life have to scale down their ambitions and settle for less than they had hoped. Some children have a bleak future because of social, environmental and economic situations, but in spite of these adversities are able to overcome these obstacles and live meaningful, productive lives. This is a story of a young girl in the direst of conditions - an orphan, stuck in an inner city social service system, often moved from one place to another, unwanted and with no one to advocate for her welfare. She has good fortune fall upon her and makes the best use of her new found luck, until she gets caught in a trafficking ring, and has to use all her wit to confront what happens next.
