Read Now Download Now
Displaced is a gripping true story of a young girl and her young siblings’ escape
from a conservative Mennonite Colony in Bolivia. In the span of her early childhood
through adulthood, Esther takes you on a journey of unspeakable losses, survival,
resilience and strong family bonds.

For Esther, the youngest of fourteen siblings born into a conservative Mennonite Colony in the heart of South America, everyday life revolves around rules, routine and monotonous chores on a family farm without so much as electricity and running water. As she sees it, her childhood is normal and ordinary. That is until one catastrophic day when everything changes. Suddenly, eleven-year-old Esther must leave behind everything she’s ever known.

This is the true, heartbreaking account of growing up in a Mennonite family and the
harrowing events that eventually lead to her and her three youngest siblings’ dramatic escape to Canada. Everything Esther has ever known about her identity is left behind as she struggles to find a place for herself in a new country, a new culture, and a new language.
