Written through the eyes of this child, this is a heart-wrenching tale of neglect. It was hard to put down and hard not to want to take this and every other child into your home. Can't wait to read the sequel ...

I'm with the other reviewers! Didn't love this book! Too much going on and going nowhere! Needless to say, I wasn't breathless after reading this one, just glad it was over. Not a favorite!
