Description

Cathy Glass's new book tells the story of Alice, a young girl who was desperately taken from her parents and left to fend for herself. At just four years old, Alice is snatched by her mother, who is struggling with addiction and mental health issues, leaving Cathy to worry about her whereabouts. After three anxious days, Alice is found safe but traumatised, and she quickly settles into Cathy's family. However, as Cathy tries to provide a stable home for Alice, questions arise about the girl's father and his suitability as a parent. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Alice has been well cared for in her previous life, but the circumstances of her removal from her grandparents are complex. This heart-wrenching true story explores the challenges of foster care and the complexities of family dynamics, raising important questions about what is best for children who have experienced trauma.
