The Story of Esther Costello

the long version

A very humane fictional story about a severely disabled ten year old girl being rescued from poor suroundings by a rich philanthropic american lady and taken to America for initially to seek a medical cure for her condition. By pure accident, there became so much public Interest in the afflicted girl that what started out to be a charitable cause suddenly became big business and an element of sleaze crept in. Womderful story, well written, strange twist at the end.
