Her intensely moving true story of Sheila, a silent, profoundly disturbed little six-year-old girl touched millions. From every corner of the world came letters from readers wanting to know more about the troubled child who had come into Torey Hayden's class as a"hopeless case," and emerged as the very symbol of eternal hope within the human spirit.

I find this true Torey Hayden book to be darker than all the rest. It has an air of mystery. Torey found her and reconnected, in "The Tiger's Child", but by then Sheila, a hostile teen in a juvenile detention facility, thought Torey, not her mother, had dumped her on a freeway. We never find out what exactly is going on, all we do know is that there is a very hurt girl, Jadie who is in desperate need of help. Torey's story of reconnecting with her, her horror at discovering that no one in social services had tracked Sheila or advocated for her, and her efforts to put some of the pieces back together for this 'one child' are marinated in the sad twists of real life.

Torey Hayden returns with this deeply-moving sequel to her first book, One Child (the Sunday Times bestseller). The Tiger's Child picks up the story seven years later. After seven years, Torey is reunited with Sheila, the disturbed 6-year-old she tried to rescue. Sheila was a deeply disturbed six-year-old when she came into Torey Hayden's life – a story poignantly chronicled One Child. Hayden has lost touch with the child she helped to free from a hellish inner prison of rage and silence
