Synopsis
Would you have the strength to fight to change the fortunes of an abandoned child?
A Sunday Times bestseller, The Girl Who Wanted to Belong is an honest, moving memoir about a young girl in need of some care and compassion, from devoted foster carer Angela Hart.
Lucy is eight years old and ends up in foster care after being abandoned by her mum and kicked out by her new stepmother. Two aunties and then her elderly grandmother take her in but it seems nobody can cope with her disruptive behaviour. Social Services hope a stay with experienced foster carer Angela will help Lucy settle down.
A deeply personal account of Angela's struggles to help Lucy make a fresh start, The Girl Who Wanted to Belong is a testament to the power of quiet care, a watchful eye and sympathetic ear.
