Synopsis

This book offers the reader a moving story as seen from inside a mid-century orphanage. After the death of his father, the author goes with his mother, two sisters and brother to live in an orphanage. Their mother planned to live there until a conflict with the superintendent caused her to leave. Foster tells how the four siblings then devise a tight family bond of kinship. He employs a dozen broad topics to describe the orphanage, and opens the entire range of emotions he experienced while growing up.
