Angels Passing Through: Reflections on Growing Up with Foster Babies - Paperback

by Peter Mastrantuono (Author)

None had a home, most had a name, but all had a story.

Angels Passing Through is the true story of a childhood dominated by the ebb and flow of over forty foster babies entering and exiting a young boy's life. Collectively, these babies have died, disappeared, been given up, and come damaged. This was not an isolated experience; it was a lifestyle. Human bonds were torn asunder on a regular basis. This is a story of these babies-the joys, the pain, and the emotional aftermath left in their wake.

Angels Passing Through is sure to touch your heart and open your eyes to a unique, seldom-heard perspective. This compelling chronicle is a must-read for anyone who has ever been involved in foster care, is considering becoming involved, or simply has been touched by a baby's innocence.

25% of the net proceeds from the sale of each book will be donated to The Children's Home Society of NJ, a non-profit organization dedicated to saving children's lives and building healthy families since 1894.
