Book – The Dead Don’t Hurt Us- to help street children’s charities

30 01 2011

Pam Cairns first novel ‘The Dead Don’t Hurt Us’ is now published.  Pam writes – This is an adventure story for the over tens, but also liked by adults, which  draws on my experiences in the Amazon. During my visits to Amazonia I learnt  a great deal about street children; the factors that cause their ever increasing numbers, their battle to survive and the terrible way they are treated by society. This book is for them!  The profits are going to street children’s charities. (For more details see www.astwood.org.uk)

Please consider buying a copy using this link http://www.ypdbooks.com/children-and-young-adults/341-the-dead-don-t-hurt-us-YPD00315.htmlard Purchasing through this link, instead of amazon books, will ensure that for every book sold £4 will go to help street children. Please send  this email to your friends. The more copies we sell, the more help we can give to the millions of abandoned children around the world.
