When she told the story of her early life as a Dublin street-child in her bestselling autobiography 'Bridge Across My Sorrows', Christina Noble had no idea that it would prove an inspiration for so many others who had suffered pain and rejection.
In 1989, driven by a dream and by the memory of her own past, she travelled 6,000 miles to Vietnam, a country of great beauty where war has left a terrible legacy. Against extraordinary odds she opened the Christina Noble Children's Foundation, a haven of food, beds, medical aid and schooling where the street children of Saigon could find safety and new beginnings under the protection of "Mama Tina."
In this vivid and moving book, Christina's compelling story continues with the amazing tale of what she and her Foundation have achieved. She takes us from the streets of Saigon to the Children's Prisons of Mongolia. A staunch campaigner for children's rights, for her there are no frontiers, only a world filled with children reaching out.
