A small seven-year-old boy who couldnt speak except to repeat weather forecasts and other peoples words...A beautiful little girl of seven who had been brain damaged by terrible parental beatings and was so ashamed because she couldnt learn to read...A violently angry ten-year-old who had seen his stepmother murder his father and had been sent from one foster home to another ...A shy twelve-year-old from a Catholic school which put her out when she became pregnant... What do we matter Why do you care They were four problem children-put in Torey Haydens class because no one else knew what to do with them. Together, with the help of a remarkable teacher who cared too much to ever give up, they became almost a family, able to give each other the love and understanding they had found nowhere else.
