The true story of Melody, aged eight, the last of five siblings to be taken from her drug dependent single mother and brought into care. When Cathy is told about Melody’s terrible childhood, she is sure she’s heard it all before. But it isn’t long before she feels there is more going on than she or the social services are aware of.

Born in a prison and removed from his drug-dependent mother, rejection is all that 7-year-old Alex knows. When Cathy is asked to foster little Alex, aged seven, her immediate reaction is: Why can't he stay with his present carers for the last month?

But the present carers are expecting a baby and the foster mother isn't coping, so Alex goes to live with Cathy.

The most hands on: how to become a better parent, book by Kathy class I have ever read
- By María del Carmen Camarena on 06-09-17
Publisher's Summary
The true story of two-year-old Anna, abandoned by her natural parents, left alone in a neglected orphanage.
Elaine and Ian had travelled halfway round the world to adopt little Anna. She couldn't have been more wanted, loved and cherished. So why was she now in foster care and living with me? It didn't make sense.
Until I learned what had happened...
Dressed only in nappies and ragged T-shirts, the children were incarcerated in their cots. Their large eyes stared out blankly from emaciated faces. Some were obviously disabled, others not, but all were badly undernourished. Flies circled around the broken ceiling fans and buzzed against the grids covering the windows. The only toys were a few balls and a handful of building bricks, but no child played with them. The silence was deafening and unnatural. Not one of the 30 or so infants cried, let alone spoke.

Emotional and heartwarming.
I am a massive fan of this author and her books are always emotional and heart breaking when you learn what the children have been threw. This in a way was one of the most heartwarming and emotional stories as due to her past Anna was badly affected and unable to show love to anyone or even communicate how she felt. Despite her parents loving her. This was one of the most lovely stories due to me becoming an uncle a year a go it really tore at my heart to see a family who clearly loved each other but just did not know how to handle there situation. I am glad that Anna ended up with Cathy because if not I feel that family would have not had the ending they did. Cathy is a tromendus and dedicated carer and I am glad that there are people like her who not only care about helping the children but also assisting the family as well.
