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. On a cold dark evening Danny finds a place in Cathy's foster home; 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. The name "Cathy Glass" is a pseudonym. The author writes under this name due to the sensitive nature of her source material. The names of the children she fosters are likewise altered.
