Más información sobre el libro
Special-education teacher Torey Hayden's first book captivated readers worldwide with the story of Sheila, a silent and troubled girl abandoned by her mother and abused by her father. Sheila's courage and resilience deeply affected Hayden, prompting her to explore the profound need for love that we all share. In response to her fans' curiosity about Sheila's fate, Hayden presents "The Tiger's Child," which chronicles Sheila's journey as a young woman confronting her traumatic childhood. While working on her first book, Hayden discovered that Sheila, then a teenager, had little memory of her painful past, including their difficult interactions. Despite Hayden's efforts to help Sheila communicate and thrive, her home life remained chaotic, with her father imprisoned and Sheila escaping various foster homes until finding refuge in a children's home. As Hayden reconnected with teenage Sheila, memories of her past began to resurface, bringing feelings of abandonment and anger. Overwhelmed by these emotions, Sheila faced suicidal despair. Ultimately, "The Tiger's Child" tells the inspiring story of Sheila's growth as she learns to view her mother not as a monster, but as a flawed human, allowing her to embrace her own strength and break free from the shadows of her abusive past.
