About this product

Product Information

This beautiful and deeply moving tale recounts educational psychologist Torey Hayden's battle to unlock the emotions of a troubled and sexually abused child who, with the help of Hayden, was finally able to overcome her dark past and realise her full potential. Six-year-old Sheila was abandoned by her mother on a highway when she was four. A survivor of horrific abuse, she never spoke, never cried, and was placed in a class for severely retarded children after committing an atrocious act of violence against another child. Everyone thought Sheila was beyond salvation - except her teacher, Torey Hayden. With patience, skill, and abiding love, she fought long and hard to release a haunted little girl from her secret nightmare - and nurture the spark of genius she recognised trapped within Sheila's silence. This is the remarkable story of their journey together - an odyssey of hope, courage, and inspiring devotion that opened the heart and mind of one lost child to a new world of discovery and joy.

    The seller kindly got in touch to say the book I ordered did not meet the quality advertised due to being found to be in a poor condition at the packing stage. Unfortuntely no replacement was available and would I like to pick a book of equivalent value from the marketplace - which I did. That book arrived safely and was in the condition advertised. I have used this seller many times before and I am grateful for their quality control decission, rather than send me a damaged book. Will use again.

A top notch seller who always gives their best. 5🌟 all round 👍

  • A must read for professionals

    I work in a nurture group in a disadvantaged area and from the moment I read the first chapter I was hooked!! I can relate to it on so many levels, some of the kids I work with I can see in this book-definitely given me more inspiration to be a more holistic and tenacious in a sometimes difficult and unsupportive role. Only negative is that the wording is sometimes a little outdated but considering this was wrote in 1980 it's still relatable to today's settings. A must read for anybody who works in nurture groups or who provides support to children with traumatic or misunderstood backgrounds!

  • Excellent

    I brought this pre-owned. It was slightly dirty but nothing a baby wipe couldn’t do. Highly recommended. Known to be a great book so very excited to read.
