Excerpt from Joshua Marvel
The bees in the neighborhood being common and poor, it was natural that the neighborhood itself should partake of the character of its inhabitants. But, common and poor as it was, it was not too common nor too poor for love to dwell in it. Love did reside there; not only in the hive of the Marvels, but in hundreds of other hives, tenanted by the humblest of humble bees.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the life of Joshua Marvel, a young boy growing up in a poor, working-class family in 19th-century London. Joshuaâs family life is full of love and laughter, but his fatherâs struggle to financially support the family weighs upon him. After his father dies, Joshua knows he must secure his future and relieve the burden his mother carries. The author explores themes of poverty, family, and the love that binds them together even as the harsh realities of life threaten to pull them apart. Joshuaâs story is not one of triumph over adversity, but of honest perseverance and the resilience of the human spirit. This book is an enlightening glimpse into the lives of the working class of the era and how the bonds of family transcend even the most dire of circumstances.
