I’m so excited to welcome Conor Grennan to Book Club Girl on Air on Tuesday, January 31st at 7pm ET to discuss his memoir, Little Princes: One Man's Promise to Bring Home the Lost Children of Nepal.
One Person Can Make a Difference
In search of adventure, twenty-nine-year-old Conor Grennan traded his day job for a year-long trip around the globe, a journey that began with a three-month stint volunteering at the Little Princes Children’s Home, an orphanage in war-torn Nepal.
Conor was initially reluctant to volunteer, unsure whether he had the proper skill, or enough passion, to get involved in a developing country in the middle of a civil war. But he was soon overcome by the herd of rambunctious, resilient children who would challenge and reward him in a way that he had never imagined. When Conor learned the unthinkable truth about their situation, he was stunned: The children were not orphans at all. Child traffickers were promising families in remote villages to protect their children from the civil war—for a huge fee—by taking them to safety. They would then abandon the children far from home, in the chaos of Nepal’s capital, Kathmandu.
For Conor, what began as a footloose adventure becomes a commitment to reunite the children he had grown to love with their families, but this would be no small task. He would risk his life on a journey through the legendary mountains of Nepal, facing the dangers of a bloody civil war and a debilitating injury. Waiting for Conor back in Kathmandu, and hopeful he would make it out before being trapped in by snow, was the woman who would eventually become his wife and share his life’s work.
Little Princes is a true story of families and children, and what one person is capable of when faced with seemingly insurmountable odds. At turns tragic, joyful, and hilarious, Little Princes is a testament to the power of faith and the ability of love to carry us beyond our wildest expectations.
I have 10 copies of Little Princes to give out to the first 10 people who comment that they can participate in the show on Tuesday, January 31 at 7pm ET. Set your reminder for the show, browse inside Little Princes and check out the reading group guide. To learn more about Conor, become a fan on Facebook, follow him on Twitter, and visit his website and the Next Generation Nepal website.
Oh, I'm so glad this is going to be a Bookclubgirl on Air show! I've been wanting to read this book for forever! I would LOVE to participate!
