Taken from his family and driven to an orphanage without an explanation at the age of six, Steve Marchand takes us on an emotional journey as he recounts the tale of the long and difficult quest to find him a family. The daily life at the orphanage and his experiences, at times good but at times shocking, with the different families in which the author was sent to live "on a trial basis" are described with an emphasis on the emotions rather than strictly on the events, compelling the readers to see and feel the story. Citizen of Happy Town is a surprising true story that took place during the seventies and is proof it is possible to follow the path destiny has drawn for us even if it is darkened by a thick fog. To ensure nothing was lost in translation, this story was rewritten in English based on its original French version by the author himself.
