In 1975, Bonasakhana was only 12 years old when her whole world was turned upside down, and would be changed forever.

“A riveting memoir. . . an important, moving work that those who have suffered cannot afford to forget and those who have been spared cannot afford to ignore.” — San Francisco Chronicle From a childhood survivor of the Cambodian genocide under the regime of Pol Pot, this is a riveting narrative of war crimes and desperate actions, the unnerving strength of a small girl and her family, and their triumph of spirit. One of seven children of a high-ranking government official, Loung Ung lived a privileged life in the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh until the age of five. Then, in April 1975, Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge army stormed into the city, forcing Ung's family to flee and, eventually, to disperse. Loung was trained as a child soldier in a work camp for orphans, her siblings were sent to labor camps, and those who survived the horrors would not be reunited until the Khmer Rouge was destroyed. Harrowing yet hopeful, Loung's powerful story is an unforgettable account of a family shaken and shattered, yet miraculously sustained by courage and love in the face of unspeakable brutality.

How could it be wrong to save the children by starting an orphanage? Oh, in so many ways . . . Tara Winkler first arrived in Cambodia to join a tour group in 2005 and was taken to visit a small orphanage in Battambang. The children were living in extreme poverty, and Tara was determined to raise money to help them. Two years later, after fundraising in Australia, Tara returned to Battambang only to discover that the same children were in deep trouble. Her spontaneous response was to find them a new, safe, home. With a team of committed locals and support from friends, she established the Cambodian Children's Trust (CCT). With an instant family of fourteen children and three dogs, Tara had to learn a lot, very fast. And, along the way, she realised that many of the actions she took with good intentions were not at all what the children needed - or indeed, what any child needs. CCT now helps vulnerable children to escape poverty and be cared for within their families. In this compelling, poignant and funny memoir, Tara shares the many joys and the terrible lows of her journey thus far with honesty and passion. Written with co-writer, Lynda Delacey, How (Not) to Start an Orphanage is a book that will keep you thinking long after you turn the final page.

ដំណើរជីវិតដែលមានជយ័ជំនះរបស់ក្មេងកំព្រាម្នាក់ Orphan of the Killing Fields. The Life Journey of an Orphan Survivor. This is the story of a young man who went through the darkest regime and walked away from the grave. Both of Tony's parents died when he was only 16 years old. His only brother sent him to the refugee camp with a family friend in the hope that he could escape to another country. During the journey into the refugee camp he experienced the darkest of nights, armed robbery and crossed the armed observation post. After enduring a year of hardship in the camp he was finally able to leave to another country. As an orphan, Tony had to work full-time and learn English to survive. He resettled in the United State with nothing in his pockets but with his determination to succeed. He worked over 12 hours a day for 19 years before taking his first vacation. He experienced many tragedies throughout his life, such as an armed robbery and the LA riots, but with his resilience he strived and succeeded. Tony started the one and only Khmer Television station (khmertv.com) in Southern California, broadcasting over the public airwaves free to a community that had never seen a Khmer Language Television station before. He is solely running multiple businesses and owns several properties in California and Arizona. Tony is happily married to his wife with a son and a granddaughter. In An Orphan of the Killing Fields, he retells his incredible life journey, the challenges he faced, and how he was able to find success on his own merit. His mantra is "Play Dumb you may Learn, Play Dead you may Live and the power of A.S.K. will make you successful." Thank you.

It was my turn to be shocked. In fact, I was shocked and confused that I became quite frantic. Was it repulsion or hatred she has for me? Was it uncertainty as to whether I loved her or not? I couldn't say. I told her to show me my younger brothers. She silently took me to where they were and pointed at them. Then I broke from her. Some of those kids look just like myself I went to them and hugged them for long. One of them actually looked so identical with me then I broke into tears. I cried: "God, You're so faithful, today, You' ve caused me to hold my own brother in my hand. I thank you."
