Reviews
It's the book I wish I'd had when I was considering fostering and in my first few years. -- Maxine Taylor, Foster carer This beautiful quote will stay with me forever: Always make sure they have a blanket when they leave. Don't wash it, as it needs to have a familiar smell to help them settle. Even our 16-year old took a blanket with her. -- Dr.h.c Jenny Molloy, Author, Adviser and Trainer for Looked After Children, Care Leavers Patron for The British Association of Social Workers England This is an important and timely book, which sets out both the challenges and the achievements of foster carers' day-by-day work. -- The Rt. Hon. The Lord Laming This is a great guide, packed full of information and insight about how best to navigate the world of fostering. -- Isabelle Trowler, Chief Social Worker for Children
