The next,
An abandoned baby. A damaged child. Can Rebecca escape her broken past? Abandoned outside a hospital, baby Rebecca didn't have a good start. She's adopted, but her new father can't warm to her, & her mother can't succeed in turning the plain, unresponsive child into the little princess she longs for. When her adoptive mother dies, her greedy aunt takes her in, but hers is not a happy home, & soon Rebecca's life is worse than ever. She longs to escape to the circus that visits her town, with its carefree life & freedom from her past
- but will she ever find happiness?
