Little Princes

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 Childrens Home, an orphanage in war-torn Nepal. 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. Conor learned the unthinkable truth--the children were not orphans at all. Child traffickers were promising families in remote villages protection for their children from the civil warfor a huge feeby taking them to safety. They would then abandon the children far from home. For Conor, what began as a footloose adventure becomes a commitment to reunite the children with their families. He risks his life, facing the dangers of a bloody civil war and a debilitating injury. Little Princes is a true story of what one person is capable of when faced with seemingly insurmountable odds. At turns tragic, joyful, and hilarious, it is a testament to the power of faith and the ability of love to carry us beyond our wildest expectations.
