The fifteenth fostering memoir by Cathy Glass.
Danny was petrified and clung to me in desperation as I carried him to my car. Trapped in his own dark world, he couldn't understand why his parents no longer loved or wanted him, and were sending him away.
While Danny's parents have everything they could wish for in material terms, they are unable to care for their only child. This is where Cathy comes in. On a cold dark evening Danny finds a place in her home where he can be himself; away from his parents' impatience and frustration. Often in his own little world, six-year-old Danny finds it difficult to communicate, finding solace in his best friend and confidant George his rabbit.
Cathy quickly becomes aware of his obsessively meticulous behaviour in addition to his love of patterns, he sees them everywhere and creates them at any opportunity in his play and also with his food. She realises that patience is the key to looking after Danny as well as her well-tried strategies for managing children's behaviour.
With his father refusing to cooperate, it becomes increasingly likely that Danny will be living with Cathy permanently until she gets an opportunity to speak her piece.
Cathy Glass, the bestselling author, continues to share her personal experiences in Saving Danny, a top autobiography that delves into the complexities of fostering. Her memoirs, always a Sunday Times bestselling book, reveal the heart-wrenching journey of Danny, a child lost in his own world, yet finding solace in the simplest of patterns.
For fans of Maggie Hartley (Battered, Broken, Healed), Linda Watson-Brown (Don't Say A Word), Kat Ward (KERI 2), Veronica Clark (Snatched), and Torey L. Hayden (The Invisible Girl).
