Maggie Hartley is one of the UK’s most prolific foster mothers. This inspiring collection includes three heartbreaking, true short stories about the children who have passed through Maggie’s care.

IS IT MY FAULT MUMMY?

Seven-year-old Paris is trapped in a prison of guilt. Devastated after the death of her baby brother, Joel, Maggie faces one of her most heartbreaking cases yet as she tries to break down the wall of guilt surrounding this damaged little girl.

A DESPERATE CRY FOR HELP

Twelve-year-old Meg arrives at Maggie’s after a fire destroys the children’s home she’s been living in. Traumatised by the fire and angry and vulnerable, having been put into care by her mother, Meg is lashing out at everyone around her. Can Maggie reach this damaged little girl before it’s too late? And before Meg’s destructive behaviour puts Maggies life - and the lives of the other children in her care - at risk?

These heartwarming and inspiring short stories show the power of a foster mother’s love, and her determination to help the children who come into her care.

Note: Two of these stories have previously been published as individual ebooks.
