Produktbeschreibung
" LITTLE CRIMINALS WITH BIG HEARTS was written by author Luella Thomas. She was inspired to write this book based on her personal and professional experiences working as a Youth Counselor through her church organization in Southwest Michigan. It tells the story about a teenage boy who is arrested and placed in a juvenile detention center for fighting. While there, he crosses paths with kids whöve been abused, abandoned, neglected, and have ran away from home. Others are there for fighting, domestic violence, violating court orders, using drugs or alcohol, and for committing crimes. It will undoubtedly change his life forever. The story demonstrates how kids will embrace self-respect and respect for others, when raised or placed, in an environment that provides discipline, structure, and guidance. Additionally, it homes in on the power of love, lies, loyalty, influence, and truth. Although some characters in this story will go on to live productive and successful lives, others will not be so lucky. They will unfortunately be sent to jail or prison, and others will die at an early age. Some incidents in this story are based on true events, while others are fictional. The names were created through the author¿s mind in an effort to bring the story together. A local book-club in Austin, Texas, states ¿Little Criminals with Big Hearts is a heart-felt romantic-drama that will make you smile, cry, and empathize with its characters.¿ Although this story was written to entertain, it was also written to enlighten parents and all adults about the importance of improving their relationships with children, starting with their own."
Autorenporträt
" My previously published books Flirting with the Truth and From Minnows to Men, will tell you more about me and my achievements, should there be interest, as it is about the children, not about me. Moving forward, I've learned through my education, personal and professional experiences, that many children have been neglected, abused, abandoned, mistreated, and simply put, unloved. And the synthesis of my work is not only to enlighten you, but it is also to ruffle your feathers, in hopes that you might take action and join forces in helping to save the children in our nation, and all across the world from self-destruction. Providing discipline, structure, and guidance in the home, gives our children a sense of pride and self-worth, and it assures them that they are truly loved. This will not only better prepare them for their future, but it will also allow for safer communities and a better tomorrow. And as a result, they too, can carry on the legacy of doing good and showing care and concern for the sake of humanity. Remember, that without discipline, structure, and guidance in the home, our children will most likely spend time in jail, and or, prison, and some will unfortunately, die at an early age, leaving parents with an immeasurable amount of grief, guilt, and anger. I hope that this book Little Criminals with Big Hearts will encourage you to raise your children to be the best that they can be. Also, I personally recommend and encourage all parents to seek some type of spiritual guidance, as this too, can assist both your children, and you. Parents, please remember that you too, were once a child, and growing up may not have been easy. However, with love and support from your parents, grand-parents, teachers, some neighbors, community leaders, bishops, ministers and missionaries, and the church, you made it through to adulthood. While raising children may present many challenges in today's society, loving and supporting children, and providing them with discipline, structure, and guidance, can help to maximize their potential, and it will certainly help to minimize the trouble that they may face, in their future."
