DIary of a Throwaway Kid (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798994204405)

What if every adult in your childhood had let you down?
What if your life had been a revolving door of foster homes, group homes, and hospital stays-each move a reminder that you were unwanted?
For Storm Rogers, that's not just a question. It's her life. Since the age of five, she's been passed from one placement to another, each new beginning ending in disappointment.
Through the pages of her journal, Storm tells her story with unflinching honesty. Her sharp wit and humor will make you laugh, even as her heartbreak and resilience bring tears to your eyes.
Diary of a Throwaway Kid is a moving, unforgettable portrait of a young girl navigating a world that's failed her again and again-yet still daring to hope for love, belonging, and a forever home.

With clarity and emotional precision, Diary of a Throwaway Kid captures the instability of a childhood spent moving from one placement to another. Storm's voice is authentic and memorable, revealing the quiet toll of abandonment alongside an unyielding will to endure.
