About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Workhouse Orphans by Holly Green, read by Julie Maisey.

All they have left is each other....

Life has always been tough for May and Gus Lavender. Their father went away to sea never to return, and then their mother falls victim to the typhus sweeping through Liverpool. Regarded as orphans by the authorities, May and Gus are sent to the Brownlow Hill Workhouse.

Like all workhouses, Brownlow is the last resort for the poor and the destitute. May and Gus will have to rely on each other more than ever if they are to survive the hardships to come....

Excellent Read

This is completely different to any other book I have read but I couldn’t put it down. Amazing read and well written. Always love a book that teaches you another world at the same time.
