We can learn the importance of family, whether it's the biological one or the family one creates along the way. In the true story, there must have been moments that showed how important relationships are in difficult times. Also, we can learn about the power of hope. Despite the odds, if there's hope, one can keep going, just as the characters in 'The Orphan Keeper' true story probably did.
I don't think so. 'The Bee Keeper' is more likely to be a fictional tale crafted by the author's imagination rather than being based on actual, verifiable events.
