Blue Plastic Cow: One Woman's Search for Her Birth Mother

By Barbara Attwood

This is the true story of Barbara's adoption by a family who lived in a town on the banks of the River Mersey. They were a loving family but Barbara always felt different. Her mother, Florrie, never wanted her to know the truth. At age 12, after Barbara accidentally discovered that she was adopted, Florrie lied to her about her birth mother, Carole, and the facts surrounding her birth.
As a teenager, unable to deal with the shock of what she'd learned, she rebelled against her parents, finding solace in the exciting 1960s' Liverpool music scene. Against her parents' wishes, she got a job in Liverpool as a secretary. She went to lunch time sessions at the Cavern where she saw The Beatles, and often stayed out late in Liverpool drinking.
Decades later, Barbara discovered tear stained letters from her birth mother, containing heart-breaking words that would send her on a challenging 26-year quest to find Carole and discover the secret of the blue plastic cow.
