Dustbin Baby is a novel by Jacqueline Wilson that follows the story of April, a teenage girl who was abandoned by her mother in a dustbin when she was only a few hours old. On her fourteenth birthday, April sets out on a journey to learn about her past after spending years in foster care and adoption. The book explores April's complex emotions and experiences as she visits places from her past, including the hospital where she was found, the family who first fostered her, and the cemetery where her adoptive mother is buried. Throughout the day, April confronts her feelings of rejection and her longing for a sense of identity and belonging. The novel is a poignant and heart-warming tale of self-discovery that tackles themes of abandonment, the meaning of family, and the resilience of the human spirit.
