Nonfiction by Cathy Glass
In this story, foster carer Cathy Glass takes in Faye, a mentally challenged young adult who has been in the care of her grandparents all her life. The problem with Faye is that she's pregnant, and no one can figure out how she managed that in her sheltered existence. She's supposed to stay with Cathy until the baby comes, and then give it up for adoption and go back to Gran and Gramps. But what happens if Faye wants to keep her baby?
I really liked this book; it gave the reader a lot to think about. What is the best outcome for Faye and the baby? What about her grandparents? And the couple who desperately want to adopt? Is there a solution that everyone will be satisfied with? There are no easy answers in the real world.
