LITTLE CRIMINALS WITH BIG HEARTS was written by author Luella Thomas. She was inspired to write this book based on her personal and professional experiences working as a Youth Counselor through her church organization in Southwest Michigan. It tells the story about a teenage boy who is arrested and placed in a juvenile detention center for fighting. While there, he crosses paths with kids whove been abused, abandoned, neglected, and have ran away from home. Others are there for fighting, domestic violence, violating court orders, using drugs or alcohol, and for committing crimes. It will undoubtedly change his life forever.
The story demonstrates how kids will embrace self-respect and respect for others, when raised or placed, in an environment that provides discipline, structure, and guidance. Additionally, it homes in on the power of love, lies, loyalty, influence, and truth. Although some characters in this story will go on to live productive and successful lives, others will not be so lucky. They will unfortunately be sent to jail or prison, and others will die at an early age.
Some incidents in this story are based on true events, while others are fictional. The names were created through the authors mind in an effort to bring the story together. A local book-club in Austin, Texas, states Little Criminals with Big Hearts is a heart-felt romantic-drama that will make you smile, cry, and empathize with its characters. Although this story was written to entertain, it was also written to enlighten parents and all adults about the importance of improving their relationships with children, starting with their own.
Giới thiệu về tác giả
She also teaches, mentors, and counsels children of all ages, as her mission is to save the children. Ms. Thomas states, ‘I’ve learned through my education, personal, and professional experiences, that many children have been neglected, abused, abandoned, and simply put, unloved.’ The purpose of my work is not only to enlighten, but it is also to ruffle feathers, in hopes that parents and adults might take action and join forces to help save the children in our nation and all across the world. By providing discipline, structure, and guidance in the home, our children will be given a sense of pride and self-worth; and this will not only better prepare them for their futures, but it will also allow for safer communities and a better tomorrow. And they too, can carry on the legacy of doing good and showing care and concern for their children, and for the sake of humanity.
Remember that without discipline, structure, and guidance in the home, our children will most likely spend time in jail or prison, and some will unfortunately, die at an early age; leaving parents with an immeasurable amount of grief, guilt, and anger. I hope that Little Criminals with Big Hearts will encourage you to raise your children to be the best that they can be. Also, I personally recommend and encourage all parents to seek some type of spiritual guidance, as this too, can assist your children, and you.
Remember that adults too, were once a child, and growing up may not have been easy. However, with love and support from our parents, grand-parents, teachers, neighbors, community leaders, ministers, missionaries, and the church; we made it through to adulthood. While raising children may present many challenges in today’s society, loving and supporting them, and providing them with discipline, structure, and guidance, can help to maximize their potential; and it will certainly help to minimize the trouble that they may face, in their future.
God, please save the children.
