Summary: What happened next
Comment: This book is definately makes you think.
After reading One Child, you can't help feeling completely saddened by whas has happened to Sheila but also there is a sense of a happy ending to this book.
Tiger's Child totally opens your eyes to the reality. Its easy to think that Sheila's life will naturally improve just because she has seen happier times, but this book shows how in some ways, the help she had was not necessarily all that was needed. I am glad however that Sheila has managed to become her own person and lead a contented life.
If only we had more people that were able to help the way Torey Hayden can!

Summary: Tiger's Child
Comment: WOW!! It's 2am and i've literally just finished this amazing book and had to write my review whilst my thoughts are fresh in my head.... This is an absolute 'must read'! But to fully appriciate the emotional journey that both Sheila and Torey make you must read 'One Child' first. The true story of a very troubled little girl- sheila, saved by a truely amazing woman, Torey Hayden. They begin as teacher and student, but as the story unfolds it is clear that they have a very srong bond together. Torey is a remarkable person and a very talented writer. Both books are truely inspiring, and I urge just about anybody to pick up there copies.

Summary: Read 'One Child' First
Comment: This book is brilliant. However, for it to be brilliant you must read Torey Hayden's prequel 'One Child'. The book is very touching and emotional. If you cant handle your emotions, dont read it. The ending could have been better by making everyone happy and Torey adopting her but its not a story book and theres never going to be the perfect ending.

Summary: Tiger's Child is a "must read"
Comment: I have recently read Tiger's Child and was completely absorbed with Torey and Sheila's story. I hadn't realised until I began to read the book that it was a sequel to One Child, which I am now reading. I urge everyone to read these beautiful and inspiring books. Torey teaches patience and love can overcome hardship and sadness. This is something we all need to remember at times. First class.

Summary: Utterly Brilliant
Comment: THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING. Not only is Torey Hayden an inspirational, devoted woman, she is an articulate, witty and talented writer. I really enjoyed 'One Child', her heartbreaking, yet brilliant story of the emotionally disturbed shiela, and this follow-up is truly amazing; it's insightful, honest, emotive, and well written. I could not put it down. Torey Hayden deserves the utmost respect from us all, she really is a wonderful woman. If your deliberating buying this book, do not hesitate, purchase both of these amazing stories and you will NOT be disappointed, they show us the true strength of love and determination of both Torey and Shiela. Torey emotively and successfully recalls her involvement with shiela as a child, and as she blossomed into an intelligent, amazing young woman.
