Looking for a story about a girl who got kidnapped and sold into slavery but there a crow that turns into a guy and helps her. They end up falling in love and getting married. I'm looking for a book I read maybe years ago, it was from the high school library and probably categorised as young adult fiction. It was about this deaf teenage girl who was travelling with her mum to see the grand canyon I think, and on the way they met some strange characters and the young girl kept having dreams in which she could hear.
There was a boy involved who could turn into a wolf and I think in these dreams this wolf would lead her throughout a dreamscape wilderness to find something to defeat some higher power. In the end the girl ended up having been stolen at birth by her "mother" and she finds her true parents and goes to live with them but isn't happy as she obviously has grown up with someone else as her parent. There's a dramatic standoff at the end where the "mother" threatens to kill herself in a motel?
I'm looking for a book I read maybe years ago, it was from my high school library and probably categorised as young adult fiction.

A lady on the bus wrapped the baby and left her on a doorstep, the rest of the book intertwines the life of the baby and a young boy that was on the bus also.
I can't remember the name of a book that I read, it was set in Europe as I recall, there was a group of people from a small town that went on an excursion in a bus and they have an accident, some of the group die in the accident, but one young pregnant girl has her baby right after the accident, the baby is delivered by 2 ladies from the group and one lady takes the baby girl and leaves her on a doorstep, the rest of the book is about the intertwining of the lives of the baby girl and a young boy that had also been on the bus. Im looking for a book i read about 10 years ago.
Its about a girl who goes to live with a family member. She goes to viset the kid when shes not allowed to. I'm looking for a book that I read when I was a child. It was a chapter book but it had a few pictures. I believe it was a series but I only had one of them. It was either two sisters or two cousins who solved mysteries. One if the girls had short curly hair, glasses and was kind of an ugly duckling.
The other girl was I think named amy and she had long blonde hair. The other girl was always a little jealous of her. The book I had, they traveled to the woods and there was an island with mystery lights. I'm looking for a children's picture book about a little girl who didn't want to go to sleep because she didn't want to miss anything. I think she had older siblings in the story.

She has long braided hair and is also a virgin. I know they can join minds at intimate times too. I'm looking for 2 books I read in prison. The groom gets all the women of the town to make her a wedging quilt from odd pieces of cloth. Anyone knows these books. I can't remember the names or author. I remember reading a book about a girl who lives in a "perfect world" where the government decides everything for you.
The whole place is surrounded by wall panels, in a globe shape. Her job is basically sitting in a chair and clicking any panel that flickers. One day she sees a panel flicker a bit outside of her designated zone, but when she checks it out something happens and she gets a warning. If you get 3 warnings, you are kicked out of the place. Her mother was kicked out of the place a long time ago. She remember that she got one strike because she was on the swings and went too high.
The flickering panel scenario gives her 2 warnings in total. At 18, all of the warnings are removed and you get a second chance. At 18, you also determine your future husband. You're also not allowed to wear white unless you work for the government. She finds her mother's wedding dress and wears it to the place where she will find her new husband, and there's two pictures that flash for her name.
Then rebels come and attack the place and grab her but she escapes. I don't remember much after that except she somehow gets out of the utopia and finds out that people live outside the little bubble she's lived her whole live. She doesn't trust anyone, there are bombs, people die, she goes back into her old bubble home. The master of the whole bubble place comes to her and he's fishy. Her mom is actually alive and she is the master of the rebels.
Her mother wants her to take over, she says no, mother goes crazy, and she kills her. The girl is obviously shook and she ends up in a box that messes with her mind and actualizes her nightmares. There a boy involved too, idk how though. I know it's messy and all over the place, but that's what I remember.

The boy grows up and walks with a crutch most of the time, and decides he will prove himself after being provoked by the tribe hunters saying he will never be able to catch up with them.
So the boy runs off and joins a pack of wolves and learns to hunt through a lot of trial and error in these vicious mountains.

Looking for a book that I read in my sophomore or Jr year of high school. All I can remember is it started in a village that was shot down, but a few escaped including this boy. The book is about a desert I think where people walked for months to safety to escape. I'm pretty sure it took place in Africa and is a non-fiction book. Actually he became the administrator of the hospital and his book is a series of stories about all of that. He tells us about one client whom rallied in the face of impossible odds again and again and again to reach adulthood.
He spoke about having lifelong relationships with his very injured patients. He spoke about fund raising. All the special needs a hospital like his had and how he had to go about getting those needs met. He spoke about being mentored by the previous Administrator not really knowing what he was walking into. He spoke about it being a calling not a job. At the end of the book was a chapter advising parents on what, where and how to get what they needed for their children should the need arise.
An awesome book I lent to my client that was not returned that I need to repurchase so I once again have it in my library. Can any of you out there help me locate this amazing book? I would be so appreciative. I do not know the name of the author, title or publisher. I am so sorry. It is poignant and contains a series of stories of different situations and miraculous clients who survived insurmountable odds. He spoke about seeing every client holistically by looking ahead to where that client might be at age 18 or 25 or He spoke about having a lifelong relationship with each client that stepped through their doors.
I can't remember the rest please help. Sorry everyone if this is a bit confusing but if anyone has any idea what the name is of this book please could you help. I know this is a long shot but I am looking for a book about a girl who wanders into the forest or woods and comes across this man who says he is waiting on something. She gets home safely though in the end. Any help would be appreciated!
He spoke about one client who had horrific medical issues which required inventive surgical interventions. He spoke about his fundraising efforts. About one donor whose child he had helped and how he gave back to the hospital. He spoke about the hospital never having enough funds for what they needed.

In the late 70's my favorite book was about a girl and her friends that care for an abandoned horse, found in old stables on a previously grand estate.
They took care of his food, water and grooming, all in secret from her family. At the end of the story the mystery is solved as to why this beautiful creature was left. This may have been written in the late 60's. I cannot recall purchasing thru the schools scholastic program, although that is a possibility too. So it could have been written in the 70's as well. Thanks for any help given.

She learned to be humble and compassionate, and to appreciate true human connections rather than items of luxury. Wish I could identify that book! This book which title I don't remember is about a woman that was in heaven for "5 years" 5 hours. She visited her parents in heaven, she met John Wesley but most of all, she saw Jesus surrounded by children.
Her father was sort of a counselor for people that met Jesus and passed away almost inmediately after being saved. Name of the book: These 2 kids go to visit their cousin in the Nilgiris, and there they end up going to the forest nearby and meet a sadhu who teaches them all sorts of powers such as talking to animals, and mind control etc, and they all work together to stop an evil politician from experimenting with taking the life force of kids to gain energy. A book about these creatures for lack of a better term who didn't like light and a girl who had to stay in the light to be safe from the creatures.

She doesn't recognise him till she awakes when he greets her and she realises,hes the man she had tried to kill but they both end up falling in love.
