Summary
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. Although Melody is angry at having to leave her mother, as many children coming into care are, she also worries about her obsessively - far more than is usual. Amanda, Melody’s mother, is also angry and takes it out on Cathy at contact, which again is something Cathy has experienced before. Yet there is a lost and vulnerable look about Amanda, and Cathy starts to see why Melody worries about her and feels she needs looking after.
When Amanda misses contact, it is assumed she has forgotten, but nothing could have been further from the truth....

the most heartbreaking!
This is possibly one of the most heartbreaking cathy glass books I've ever read/listened to. Really beautifully written, and Denica did a fantastic job narrating.

Touching
Such a sad but lovely story. I’m making my way through all of Cathy’s books and have enjoyed them all. She is an inspiring lady and all of the children she has cared for our little hero’s.

Foster Care
A fascinating view of adoption and fostering. Test jerking at times but sharing the wonderful work undertaken by these people. Will certainly read more of these books.

Emotional and heart warming.
This authors books are always great, this was no acception. The compassion she shows for the children she fosters and even there families is amazing and heartwarming. This is one of her best books. It is horrible to see a woman as young as Melodies mother having to go threw such a cruel illness and a child that young having to deal with her mother not knowing her. It was handled with sensitivity and care. Cathy clearly cares a lot about the Children she fosters and the compassion she shows to even Amanda going to visit her even without Melody was very touching. This was a lovely story but very heartbreaking at times specially the ending.

love cathy Glass
This one was a wonderful story, probably the one which isn't overly about abuse. But completely heart wrenching. I cried a few times, very touching.

Love and understanding can go along way.
Yet again a child in need and a Mother who tragically turns to drugs. Kathy must help both.
