Not Even in Your Dreams (Paperback)


Not Even In Your Dreams is a powerful story about the conflicts between children's rights and parent's dreams. The reader is taken directly into the arena of conflicting attitudes on children's rights, where children become the victims of the dreams of their warring parents.
Told from the perspective of one of the children, the reader becomes a silent witness to the attitudes about children's rights as experienced by American children who find themselves in an African child's reality.
The story tells us why a loving mother ends her marriage to a supportive husband and father in order to find a better life for herself and her children. We learn about why parents are motivated to take drastic action against one another and the pain it causes their children. In this story, we learn why a desperate mother kidnaps her children from their father's custody to send them to live with a new husband in an African country.
Other highlights of the story are the children's conflicts over dividing their loyalties between their parents, their country of origin and their newly adopted culture, and the abuse they suffered at the hands of their new stepparents. The major highlight, however, is their miraculous return home to their father, family and friends in the USA.
Not Even In Your Dreams is a story for people of all ages.
