Description
The Sisters of Street Child tell their story, a companion novel to the bestselling story of Jim Jarvis. When Jim Jarvis is separated from his sisters, Lizzie and Emily, he thinks he will never see them again. Now, for the first time, their story is revealed.
Set in Victorian England, Lizzie and Emily are left in the care of a cook, but their story takes them to the mills of northern England. Under the keen eyes of the mill owners, the girls are made to work in harsh conditions, with any chance of escape sorely tempting.
This new story is based on the true experiences of Victorian mill girls, offering a powerful and thought-provoking tale of survival and resilience.
