Second Chance: Based on a True Story of Abuse & Forgiveness

Autor Wyatt Harris
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 2013
Wyatt Harris was born with one arm in mainline China. Because of the one-child policy and figuring he would be of little value to the family, he was abandoned as an infant to an orphanage, where he was adopted by an American family at the age of three. The Second Chance is Wyatt’s story of his childhood in the US, and later his search to find his biological parents in China.

After finding his biological parents and siblings in a tiny village, he realizes how lucky he was to have been abandoned 20 years before. With his newfound respect for life, he decides to give orphans another chance as well, and starts Second Chances, a non-profit foundation assisting orphans in Taiwan and China. In October of 2012, the first orphan student from Taiwan was brought to the United States to study at a school in Oregon for one year, all funded through Second Chances.

The Second Chance is the story of the author’s epic journey to discover his past and secure his future.

Recenzii

Wyatt's adopting parent's gave him complete love, which made him value this second chance in life. He passed this love on and is helping other children who have gone through the same experiences.
- ???  (Wu Ruo Quan) Famous author

"Finding your Roots" is searching for the truth. It comes from a curiosity for an answer, solving the confusion from growing as a person. Wyatt Harris represents a pure love for himself to truly understand himself and his story.
-?? T.V Host of Good T.V in  Taiwan

Finding your family is vital and very important. I can only hope that all adoptive parents can help their adoptive children cross this very important milestone in life. Wyatt's story is exciting and moving.
