A good collection of short stories. The author really draws you into the book. I could not put it down.

Heart touching stories that will break your heart. Each child's story is different. The people who are able to give so unconditionally and make a difference are hero's in my eyes. This is not a job for everyone. But there is always something everyone can be doing to help. A well written book that will make you want to "Make a Difference"

This is the story of five unspeakably traumatized children. Story takes place in the United Kingdom. This authors books can be found on book share.

Heartbreakingly beautiful! All these stories give a different perspective of what fostering, and sometimes adopting, looks like. I felt so many emotions reading this book! Absolutely loved!
