I read this book for many reasons. I feel that it should be a crime when we can not help these innocent children and they are still stuck in RED TAPE. I have heard about an 8 year old that they had to leave in his home environment because there was not a foster home! I am older and not able to sign up for fostering but I said any time a child has to be removed day or night bring them to my home until they can be placed. Not an option due to what you will read in this book. Really......
