Summary: Reason to get involved
Review: As an undergraduate student in Psychology, I found "One Child" to be the most inspiring reading that I have had the pleasure to accomplish in recent times. Being undecided in a field that I wanted to study in, after reading this book I have no question in my mind that I am going to pursue a Masters degree in Clinical Child Psychology. My hopes and prayers are that I might be able to help one child that is being neglected or abused. I would challenge anyone who reads this book to take an active part in a child's life so that another child does not have to be tortured by the silence.

Summary: I LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!!!
Review: This is an inspirational book, especially for individuals who work with children. Just when you thought a child was unreachable and hopeless, Torey proves you wrong. This is a must read and it makes you run to get the sequel, Tiger's Child, which was also awesome, but that's another review!!!!

Summary: Probably my new favourite book.
Review: This book is unlike any other I have ever read before. It tells the tale of how Sheila, an abused, neglected child, is put in teacher Torey Hayden's class only because the hospital doesn't have room yet. Torey first feels frustrated then comes to know Sheila and shows her how to deal with all her extreme emotions. This book was so well written I cried at points, and it was definitely the most emotional book I have ever read. Now, when I compare it to my favourite book, my favourite book seems wimpy. Perhaps this is indeed my new favourite. It was absolutely amazing. Torey Hayden is a remarkable person and a wonderful writer as well. I am looking forward to writing the sequel.

Summary: Startling and uplifting...
Review: I read this book many, many years ago, and still remember it clearly. This story of a troubled young girl, and the special ed teacher who manages to reach through to her, is amazing, inspiring, and so completely memorable.I cried more than once while reading their tale, was horrified, and proud, and a jumble of other strong emotions--because, not only is the story an amazing one, but it is written so well, so engagingly, that you lose yourself in their lives and struggles, and feel a close connection to them when they succeed and fail. I recommend this book highly, but warn you to have Kleenex handy when you read it!
