Resumen del Editor

Twins David and Dennis Pischke's lives change forever when their father dies and a man damaged by the war arrives at their farm near the isolated town of Moosehorn, Manitoba. Boleslaw Domko quickly works his way into their lives and their mother's bed.

Where Children Run opens with one of their earliest memories - the day Domko throws their infant stepsister against the wall. In this firsthand account, the twins recall years of neglect, starvation, and enslavement; horrific beatings and candlelit nights spent in the nearby St. Thomas Lutheran Church. Neighbors intervene, but their efforts provide only temporary relief as the children's mother - also living in fear - refuses to press charges.

The brothers vow that if they survive, they will someday expose their tormentor and members of their mother's religious organization who turned a blind eye to their suffering. This is their story - told with stark honesty and in heart-wrenching detail.

Where Children Run is a timeless, unforgettable audiobook about survival, a powerful testament to the strength and adaptability of the human spirit.

Contains mature themes.

Heartbreaking

There were parts of this book I just had to fast forward through, especially when Danko was abusing and killing their horse. If you’re planning to listen to this book, please know there can be some things in it that can make you very depressed so be advise.

The souls of the twins stayed STRONG.

It is always sad to hear about people, especially children, being tortured. This factual story is difficult to listen to, I feel that the knowledge this stuff happened, and is still happening, is something we all need. We can't hide from it, nor should we. We need to be aware of it, so that we can help those that suffer from physical, mental and emotional abuse.
This book was wonderfully written.
I appreciate the author's note. It was definitely a plus to hear how the family got on after the horrible things they endured.

The overall bravery of the twins to survive the brutal child abuse.

The abuse the stepfather inflicted on the step children, and their mother's failure to protect her children from the brutal child abuse.

Engaging story that broke my heart.

I enjoy a good survival story. What I liked most was the perspective on a religion that my husband was raised in. I have never understood the contradiction of the JW faith.

My heart was broken at the absolute cruelty that these children suffered. Some aspects of the story were difficult to hear. Be prepared.

Very sad story

I grimaced and could barely finish certain parts of this story BUT the twins’ determination is so admirable I couldn’t help but continue to listen.

I cannot read this book any longer.

My reason is just how... can someone even call themselves a parent after what they allow their children to go through. The mother is beyond pathetic to me, wouldn't even take her own children to the doctor because she was afraid to be accused of things? At this point the kids were excited to be in foster care ,and she didn't even allow them that because she "changed her mind"??! I have read books similar, but maybe I just couldn't take it anymore. It's heartbreaking, so very sad, so awful. Makes me hate humans or realize how horrible people can be.

The feelings it gave me.

Amazing book was written and read perfectly! I could feel my heart race as if I was with these children as they lived the nightmare they did.
