Nowhere to go.
by Casey Watson.
read by Kate lock.
best selling author and foster carer Casey Watson shares the shocking true
story of Tyler, an abused eleven-year-old who, after stabbing his stepmother,
had nowhere else to go.
Knowing a little of Tylerâs past â his biological mother, a heroin addict,
died of an overdose when he was three â Casey feels bound to do her best for
him. It isnât easy; Tyler continuously lashes out, even trying to attack
Casey herself. Investigation into his earlier childhood reveals why: forced to
watch his mother die he was found emaciated and traumatised two days later,
then delivered to a father who didnât want him and a stepmother who beat him.
With the horrific events of his past now vividly affecting the course of his
present, Casey and her husband Mike are determined to veer him away from the
violence and drugs they fear he will come to depend on.
Heartbreaking and profoundly moving, Nowhere to Go tells the story of a child
forsaken by his family but fought for by his foster carers.
my comments.
This was a very moving and heart warming story and Casey Watson writes with
such feeling. itâs clear that she cares about her foster children and seeing
that there given love and care. This was a fantastic book and makes me think
how lucky I am to be in the situation I am in. I have loved all the books by
this author.
5 out of 5.
