At age twelve, Gail is made a \"ward of the courts, as being in need of moral protection.\" She is placed under the care of the ubiquitous Children's Committee and sent to live in a children's home. \u003cp\u003e Set against a backdrop of Beatlemania and the sexual revolution, Raised by Committee chronicles Gail's roller coaster emotional ride as she rails against the restrictions put on her life and struggles to fill the void left by her parents. As much as she resents the interference of the Children's Committee, deep down she realizes that she needs their protection -from herself as much as anyone. Gail has a wild streak in her fueled by hurt and anger, and a searing anguish which threatens to consume her. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e From runaway, to thief, to top student, Gail's life runs the gamut from despair to hope. Just when she thinks everything is fine, it blows up in her face again and again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Haynes Carollyne Haynes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1426921446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781426921445\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Trafford Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/29\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Haynes Carollyne Haynes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46383905636607,"sku":"9781426921445","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f890b23-3b32-4944-a503-f24e28066bcb.jpg?v=1733282034","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/raised-by-committee-haynes-carollyne-haynes-9781426921445","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
