This is a stunning and poignant account of an extraordinary teacher's determination never to abandon a child in need from the internationally bestselling author of "One Child" and No. 1 bestseller "Ghost Girl". Seven-year-old Venus Fox never spoke, never listened, never even acknowledged the presence of another human being in the room with her.
