- (4/5)Cathy Glass takes the reader on a wild ride with each book she writes. Once I get over the 'language barrier' (spy hole instead of peek hole, boot instead of trunk, etc) I can't put the book down. I do get upset that Endland's idea of foster care is quite different from that of foster care in The United States. Children are allowed to go out almost at will with foster parents having little or no control as to where the children go, what they do, or whom they choose as friends.
