Synopsis:
How does Jenny Thorne cope with such problems as the conflict between her calling as a missionary doctor, and her responsibilities as a mother? Or the Thai granny who lets her grandchildren die of tetanus because she refuses to believe in germs? Or the pros and cons of wearing a fur collar on her deputation suit? Closely based on the author's own experiences in Thailand, Once Bitten lets us share Jenny's experiences, from the time she arrives in Bangkok as a 'raw recruit', until her second furlough, and decision to return to the land she has grown to love. This book is a must for anyone who has ever asked the question,"But what is missionary life really like?"
The Bookworms Mission:
We strive to reduce unnecessary landfill by taking used books, second-hand books, paperback books, hardback books, pre-loved books, great reads and recycled books and then redistributing them throughout New Zealand, Australia and the rest of the world. Readers can connect online with book titles, helping them find new homes, and support reusing and re-loving books that are affordable. At Bookworms you’ll find cheap books, hidden gems and even some lost treasures.
