Title : Other People's Children - Torey Hayden - book
Summary :
These children are not like the others: Boo, the seven-year-old boy whose mind is absent and who speaks only to repeat the weather reports like a parrot. Lori, also seven, who cannot learn to read because her father fractured her skull and damaged her brain. Tomaso, ten, who plays tough to forget that he saw his stepmother kill his father and brother. Finally, Claudia, shy, secretive. She is twelve years old and pregnant. These four damaged children were gathered in Torey Hayden's class because no one knew what to do with them. Day after day, Torey will try to reassure them, to help them. Above all, she will love them. And we, too, will be overwhelmed by Boo, Lori, Tomaso, and Claudia. As if they were not other people's children but our own.
