Kindle Customer: Great books to read and so interesting. One is not aware of all that is involved in foster care. Cathy Glass is an amazing writer.

Ellie: I enjoy all of Cathy Glass' books, some more than others depending on the story. This one about Jackson, whose family suffered a number of tragedies and the effect of these on his emotions and behaviour, was a riveting one. Tilly, from the previous memoir, was also discussed and there were some happy and sad family events . One was an engagement and one sadly a death. After the 'best Christmas ever" Cathy's dear, caring and accepting mother passed away peacefully in her sleep. I always loved the parts of the books featuring Cathy's parents. They were a loving couple and great role models for the Glass family as well as the foster children. My sympathy to Cathy and her children.I love CG's writing style and how we have come to know her own family as well as the many foster children. Please keep writing!

consumer356864: Another great book by Cathy—(I have yet to read a bad one!)
This is the story of Jackson, but this book is about more than just Jackson’s story. We learned a lot more about Tilly’s story, (who Cathy originally wrote about in “A Terrible Secret”,) and there’s also a lot of major stuff going on with Cathy’s own family.
This is one of Cathy’s books you can’t miss, although, any fan of Cathy’s would never miss any of her books, anyway.
For those new to Cathy Glass, this book can also stand alone, and be fully understood.
Once again I find myself waiting for Cathy’s next book, “An Innocent Baby”, which doesn’t come out until September!

Kindle Customer: Cathy Glass books are absolutely some of the very best most caring, compassionate heart warming stories I've ever read! I'm70 years old now and I've been an addicted reader since I was about10 or12 when my sister read part of a Zane Gray book to me but wouldn't read the rest! It wasn't easy but I had to know the rest of the story so I struggle through and that was the beginning of my reading addiction ! It especially hit home to me because years ago we fostered then adopted our Grandson when he was 4. I'm so glad we did because he has turned out to be a very admirable young man! !
