"Six-year-old Sheila never spoke, she never cried, and her eyes were filled with hate. Abandoned on a highway by her mother, unwanted by her alcoholic father, Sheila was placed in a class for emotionally disturbed children after she committed an atrocious act of violence against another child. Everyone said Sheila was lost forever, everyone except her teacher, Tory Hayden. Torey fought to reach Sheila, to bring the abused child back from her secret nightmare, because beneath the rage, Torey saw in Shelia the spark of genius. And together they embarked on a wonderous journey - a journey gleaming with a child's joy and discovering a world filled with love andand a journey sustained by a young teacher's inspiring bavery and devotion." -- Back cover.
