Book - I read : Silent Boy - Torey Hayden

The story:

It is a heartbreaking story of a boy trapped in silence and the teacher who rescued him. When special education teacher Torey Hayden first met fifteen-year-old Kevin, he was barricaded under a table. Desperately afraid of the world around him, he hadn't spoken a word in eight years. He was considered hopeless, incurable. But Hayden refused to believe it, though she realised it might well take a miracle to break through the walls he had built around himself. With unwavering devotion and gentle, patient love, she set out to free him -- and slowly uncovered a shocking violent history and a terrible secret that an unfeeling bureaucracy had simply filed away and forgotten. Torey refused to give up on this tragic "lost case." For a trapped and frightened boy desperately needed her help -- and she knew in her heart she could not rest easy until she had rescued him from the darkness.

That one was very hard to read especially when it came to the description of the terrible secret. How many child in the world suffer from that kind of abuses and never get help as Kevin did luckily. Despite his behaviour this boy (from my point of view) deserves to be happy. Fortunately no matters what happened Torey never let him down and succeed to give him the tips to have a decent life.
