News! Child P.O.W., is going to be a movie!
Child P. O. W.
A. L. Finch
"I know exactly where I was on my 10th birthday...face down in a tiny, cold, wet tunnel, in a
Chinese tin mine, scratching at dirt, in the dark...gasping for breath...I wondered if I might ever be eleven..."
Alice's riveting story of an ill-fated Philippine vacation shares her struggle to survive four
years as a POW, in three countries, with her mother, Nonie. Their mental defiance and fight for life kept them sane, in the
face of death and overwhelming evil.
"My mother...every day...took my face in her two hands and said, "You must believe me...they
will come to take us home. It won't be soon. We just have to get through today...." This mantra saw us through difficulties
we never realized we could face.
