Stolen Innocence
Publisher: William Morrow
Genre: Non-Fiction
Where I got it: Mrs. Meadows recommended it to the whole class.
One Sentence summary: This book is about a young girl who lives polygamous sect, and at only fourteen is forced to marry.
First sentence of the book: "I clutched the delicate silk nightgown and embroided robe of my bridal gown as i hurried to the bathroom."
First Chapter Review: She explains how her life is living with many brothers and sisters and even in the hard times she seems happy there. You can tell she loves her family a lot during the first chapter. She shows how her mom's life was effected in the beggining by the polygamy life style.
Verdict: This is a book I would reccomend to all my friends, it is extremly touching story and it shows that life may not always be easy.
Cover Comments: On the cover it shows Elissa Wall (author) in her everyday dress. Also there is a faded face on the right corner that I believe is Warren.
