OverviewThis memoir of an LA special education teacher, foster mother, and adopted daughter weaves together the complex themes that make up the tapestry of foster youth in America today. First-had accounts of the intersection between the juvenile probation system, public education, and the personal dynamics of displacement, rejection, and family dysfunction offer both a compassionate and critical treatment of the current state of affairs. Professional without being clinical, personal without turning sentimental, McKissick takes us on a disturbing journey which catalyzes both an impulse for heightened advocacy and a hope for a better future.
