A Long Way From Home

 Nonfiction by Cathy Glass


This story begins in an orphanage in an unnamed country where the British couple Elaine and Ian travel to adopt a baby. The conditions in the orphanage are terrible, and the reader can guess that the child they adopt will be emotionally scarred. The first part of the book closes when they bring little Anna home, but their problems have just begun.

Since this is a Cathy Glass nonfiction book, it's obvious that this kid will have enough problems to come into foster care at some point. Enter the second part of the story: What is really wrong with Anna? Why couldn't Elaine and Ian cope with her? Can Cathy help?


I also read recently by this author: Innocent
