Name: Wellsprings #12 Book: Castaway Kid Author: R.B Mitchell Book Blurb: (1) This is a good book, especially that part of the things got better. The book also inspired me and I also can relate to parts of the book. What I learned is that things get bad before the get better; also liffes big and you can change that by yourself. What I would recommend is this to kids and teenagers that don't know anything about a hard life and to social services or councelors.
Name: Wellspring #3 Book: Castaway Kid Author: R.B Mitchell Book Blurb: (1) This book is about a little boy who had a hard childhoood growing up.

His mom was very close to him and after she pasts Robi starts a new life and doesn't let his childhoood affect his life as he is an adult. What I learned about this book is that Robi had a rough childhood and he doesn't let it affect his life now. I also learned that losing someone important in your life can really be a big impact, but after they pass they are in a good peace. I recommend this book to yound teens and children who have rough childhoods, and to adults who want to learn and would know what its like. I recommended this book because its a good inspiration to me. I thiink the author had many things that meant a lot to me. The author really inspired me to want to read more of his books.
Name: Wellspring #4 Book: Castaway Kid Author: R.B Mitchell Book Blurb: (1) This book was a really good inspiring true story. It is about a boy named Robby who grew up in a orphanage and had a rough life because his parents abandoned him when he was little. He just went through the drug and alchol stage he kind of had breakdowns every now and then but I thought it was a really good book just because I can relate to it alot. I learned that no matter what you do you can't control circumstances around you. You can only change your responses and that part really touched me because I never thought about it that way. Yes I recommend it because I know Theres alot of kids out their like him and that had to suffer like that and if people would just read it they'd know what we go through and how to help. Plus it's really touching and inspiring.
Name: Wellspring #6 Book: Castaway Kid Author: R.B Mitchell Book Blurb: It was about a boy named Robby who had a rough childhood and grew up into a successful man. He went to college where he meet his wife Susan and they had two kids. His grandma Cici raised him like he was her own son. His mother and father abondoned him when he was three years old and that's why he was put in an orphanage. His wife understood what he went through as a child and she let him know that she will be by his side. I learned that not everyone's going to have the life they wwant and that some kids have parents who don't care what happens to their kids lifes. I also learned that some people have to still be struggling from their past. Now I think I would recommend this to teenagers and some adults that I know.
Name: Wellspring #9 Book: Castaway Kid Author: R.B Mitchell Book Blurb: (1) The book was about a boy named Robi and his parents were kind of never there for him, his dad was in a mental hospital and his mom was bi-polar. When he was three he got sent to a orphanage until he was 18. His past was really rough and he always had his grandmother there for him. And when he grew up he found his girlfriend and then she became his wife and they had kids. I learned from the book that you past, no matter how bad it was, you can learn from it and it would make you strong and a believer in the future. And no matter how your past was its your choice on how you can react to it in the future. I would recommend this to adolecents and teenagers because this is the perfect example of a kid who went through some hard times and actually made a good life on it at the end and didn't dwell on it everyday of his life.
