Publisher Description
A heartbreaking and shocking short story from foster carer Rosie Lewis.
Toddler Charlie falls from the second floor window of his tower block home while his mother is busy shooting up in their dirty council flat.
Laying alone on a pile of rubbish until concerned neighbours hear him whimpering, Charlie is taken to hospital by police officers who are unable to rouse his mother.
With a gash to his head, a terrified Charlie is delivered to foster carer Rosie Lewis’s home. As Charlie opens up about his past, a picture of the traumatic life the little boy has endured so far becomes clear.

Customer Reviews
Disappointed
I thought I had bought the sample as it was so short . No actual story at all.
A small boy's cry.
I am so annoyed that I bought this book. Sold as a "short story" it is completely pointless. Only half of the pages are filled with the actual story and nothing at all happens in it.
It is a badly written and pointless book which is relying on the success of other similar fostering tales for its readers.
