Little princes : one man's promise to bring home the lost children of Nepal / Conor Grennan.
About to turn thirty, Conor Grennan started a year-long trip around the world with a three-month stint volunteering in the Little Princes Orphanage in Nepal. One day Conor was approached by a woman who would turn out to be the mother of two of the wards. Many of the children were not orphans but rather had been taken from their families by child traffickers. In addition to losing two of her boys, this woman was doing her best to keep seven other terrified kids alive in her mud hut. After securing spots in the orphanage for all seven and arranging for an excellent local staff to run the orphanage, Conor escaped one day before revolution erupted in Kathmandu. After arriving home, Conor received a devastating email reporting that the seven kids had disappeared, snatched once again by the same trafficker. Soon he was back in Kathmandu, riding through the chaotic streets on the back of a local's motorcycle, searching for his kids. This is where Conor's story begins.
