Sparkle’s Story: Thrown Away Children
£6.60
Louise gets a frantic call to take in a damaged and destructive young girl. Separated from her siblings, Sparkle is hostile and angry.
A short while after settling in, Sparkle begins to identify as pansexual. A revolution is underway in the Allen household, with Sparkle’s transition motivating all of the young people to explore what becoming an adult means for them.
But it’s Sparkle’s escalating behaviour that causes concern.
Discovering a dark fact about Sparkle’s birth and the shocking events that the children in her house were part of, Louise is desperate for more help – and not just for the child in her care. As Sparkle’s erratic and violent behaviour increases, Louise finds herself and her homelife under serious threat.

Brilliant thanks
by Amazon Customer
I really enjoyed this book, felt so sorry for what Louise and her family went through and Sparkle and for how they was all treated.
SPOILERS:
Some of it was a bit confusing for me with the LGBTQ but glad that Louise was able to explain it.
I’m glad that Sparkle is doing much better now she is living with her Grandparents. Definitely recommend reading it and I’m looking forward to reading Louise Allen’s next book: Marilyn’s Story when that comes out.
