Love it!If we could put more stars I would give 20 !
This book is about a girl who is left a foundling hospital when she is a baby. She diesn't have a dad she just has her mum Ida and her. Once she has been at the hospital for a long time she moves to Mrs Smiths house and becomes a slave. Whenever she can she writes letters to her mum. She gets given stamps by a man who steels his memoirs book which is really important to her. She plans to set of on a trip to see her mum but she refuses to go until she gets her memoirs book back. She then steels the book from a draw in the mans office. Once she gets to see her mum she has a doctor come and see her because she has a very bad cough. She then has to go to the infirmary.
Sapphire Battersea lives in the foundling hospital in the first bit of the story but then she moves away and goes and works at mr.Bhacanans as a maid. I love this story!
