5.0 out of 5 stars A CHARMING, DELIGHTFUL BOOK, Aug 17 2010

This review is from: Relative Strangers (Hardcover)

This is a totally charming and delightful book, a true account of triplets born in England in 1932 and separated very soon thereafter. Their mother died on the day of their birth and their father was unable to care for them, so they were taken in by a large orphanage near their home. They were eventually adopted by different families and, by their own accounts, had loving homes and enjoyed happy childhoods. The author is thrilled with his story and I could envision him smiling as I was reading along about how they--and a family consisting of six other siblings--were eventually brought together. It is so refreshing to read of dramatic events in people's lives that does not include any sort of abuse or violence--so much so that this book becomes very life-affirming. I loved it!

They say "never judge a book by its cover" and I didn't since Amazon didn't show the cover, but I might have if I had seen the cover of this book. It shows a photo of British orphans out for a walk, all of them dressed alike and holding hands, most of them smiling. The presumed care-taker of these FOURTEEN children looks into the camera with a placid half-smile on her face. It would appear that all's right with the world, and that is a great feeling to have in these days--or any day!

Need I say it again? I loved this book!
