Description

“A heartwarming book full of tenderness.” —Library Journal

From the bestselling writer of One Child, the actual story of four problem children and one unusual teacher.

They were all “just any person else’s kids”—four problem children placed in Torey Hayden’s class because no person knew what else to do with them. They were a motley group of children in great pain: a small boy who echoed other people’s words and repeated weather forecasts; a beautiful seven-year-old girl whose brain was once damaged by savage parental beatings; an indignant and violent ten-year-old who had watched his stepmother murder his father; a shy twelve-year-old who had been cast out of Catholic school when she became pregnant. But they shared one thing in common: a remarkable teacher who would never stop caring—and who would share with them the love and understanding they had never known and assist them develop into a circle of relatives.
