This book is the sequel to Torey Hayden's first book, One Child.
It was fascinating to see what had really happened to Shelia, the troubled child Torey helped. Unfortunately, reality doers not have not a tidy made-for-TV-movie kind of ending. Sheila is not all fixed up, with her troubled past washed magically away, rendering her eternally grateful to her loving teacher. It is a mark of Torey Hayden's integrity as a writer that she tells this story as truthfully as she can, and doesn't whitewash things.
I really recommend this book, although you should read the first one too!
I also read recently by this author: Somebody Else's Kids
