Description

Torey Hayden returns with a deeply-moving sequel to her first book, One Child. Seven years have passed since she was reunited with Sheila, a disturbed six-year-old she tried to rescue. Now, Sheila is back, a gangly teenager with bright orange hair, no longer broken and lost, but still troubled and searching for answers. This story of dedication and caring that began in childhood moves into a new chapter, testing the strength and heart of both Sheila and her one-time teacher. The skilled and loving educator answers the call once again to help a child in need through her difficult yet glorious transition into young womanhood. A poignant and powerful exploration of the complexities of the human spirit, The Tiger's Child is a heart-wrenching and thought-provoking account of one young woman's journey towards healing and self-discovery.
