Very good book. Jacob’s story was so shocking and hard to read in parts. I think Louise having grown up in care makes her a fantastic foster carer as she can understand some of the challenges the children go through. Despite not having the experience with Jacobs needs she really jumpt in and took good care of him. Having the support of Mary the social worker also helped her to support Jacob. His story could have ended far more tradgically and his disibility may not have even been properly diagnosed had he not been found by anna and then had people like Louise and Mary fighting his corner. It’s great that he ended up in the best place that could cater for his needs and continue the great work Louise started.

What an insight to how social services really work. Not surprised to be honest. Glad that Jacob got the happy ending he deserved and had the right people fight for him. Too many children don’t. More people should read these books, get angry angry at how children are treated in our care systems, maybe that will cause it to change.
