Description

From the bestselling writer of One Child comes this amazing, true story of a mute and withdrawn seven—year—old girl and the special education teacher made up our minds never to abandon a child in need.

Seven-year-old Venus Fox never spoke, never listened, never even acknowledged the presence of every other human being within the room with her. Yet an accidental playground “bump” would release a rage frightening to behold. The school year that followed would be probably the most trying, perplexing, and in the end rewarding of Torey Hayden’s career, as she struggled to achieve a silent child in obvious pain. It could be a strenuous journey beset by seemingly insurmountable obstacles and darkened by actually terrible revelations—yet encouraged by on occasion small, on occasion dazzling breakthroughs—as a dedicated teacher remained committed to helping a “hopeless” girl, and patiently and lovingly leading her toward the light of a new day.
