Publisher Description: Three women tell the same story from their own perspective. One day, while feeding ducks in the park, Mary Pat has her bag of bread crumbs stolen by Rachel, a street girl. The scene is witnessed by Jean. Their descriptions of what happened are interwoven throughout, showing how the three women view Rachel's poverty-and theft-in totally different ways. Rachel sees it as her only way to survive; Mary Pat, though Rachel's target, sees past her offense and tries to reach out to help her-first, practically, and then in personal ways; and Jean watches all this, and thinks it foolishness for anyone to reach out to a street urchin.Topics: CARE FOR THE POOR, FORGIVING OTHERSCharacters: 3 FEMALESParticipants: 3Author: Donna Lagerquist |
