Ellen Foster


This book is very short but very strong. The author shares the story of Ellen Foster, a young girl who is raised in an extremely abusive environment. She is affected by her abusive father, reckless mother and her cold-hearted grandmother. Ellen's journey to find her true family and happiness impacts the readers. Another reason this book is special is that the story is told in the perspective of Ellen. Based on her experience, Ellen grows to become stronger. Ellen Foster is not a happy or humorous novel, but it is definitely meaningful and heart-warming.
