The No. 1 Sunday Times Bestseller.

At just eight years old, Jodie is violent, aggressive and extremely challenging. Five carers in four months have been unable to cope, but there is one last hope: Cathy Glass…

As Jodie begins to trust Cathy and make progress, shocking details about her past come to light. No one had noticed the glaring signs of abuse by those who were supposed to love her most.

One of Cathy’s earliest and bestselling memoirs, Damaged is a heartbreaking story that proves just how valuable foster carers are for society’s most vulnerable children.

Brilliant, this book takes you through a whole range of emotions, ultimately though it is a sad reflection of so many children in today's society. Cathy Glass is clearly a wonderful foster parent and a voice for all the children she has helped a truly inspirational lady.
