Description: "When thirteen year-old Latitha's mother passes away, she and her three younger siblings are taken in by an aunt and uncle. But the burden on the relatives is too much and they abandon the children in a market. Living on the streets, Latitha becomes the child-parent of her sisters and brother and will not leave them even when a kind stranger offers to sponsor her. Then, rescued by Watoto, the children join a family of four other orphans and a house-mother. Under the care of Watoto, the children are provided with food, a home, clothing, medical car, an education and love. They learn that God loves them and cares for them."--Back cover.
