Book Description
Six-year-old Sheila was abandoned by her mother on a highway when she was four. A survivor of horrific abuse, she never spoke and never cried. She 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 recognized 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.

“Page after page proves again the power of love and the resiliency of life”
----------Los Angeles Times
“Torey Hayden deserves the kind of respect I can’t give many people. She isn’t just valuable, she’s incredible. The world needs more like Torey Hayden.”
----------Boston Globe
“Hayden probably would have become a fine writer under any circumstances but it is our good fortune that she also decides to become a teacher of children with severe mental handicaps and emotional disorders. When you read a Torey Hayden book, however, all such descriptions of children become academic nonsense. What we are guided to discover is that human beings rarely fit into conventional categories and diagnoses…Hayden has a gift for demonstrating the ways in which, despite their unique qualities, these human beings are ourselves. Here are universal fears, feelings of not being lovable enough, the universal inability to express the sources of pain.”
------Washington Post Book World
