The Box Baby

Emily is abandoned thirty minutes after birth, naked, wet, stuffed into a cardboard box and dumped at a hospital emergency room entrance. At twenty-one, she is homeless, destitute and close to death in freezing weather. Ben, an eighty-seven-year-old man rescues her and becomes the grandfather, father and brother she never had. She is My Fair Lady. She is irrepressibly happy and contagious.

This story about love and human kindness follows Emily’s path to the missing male component in her life. This is Emily’s love story.
