I'm a big fan of Caroline Bond after reading The Second Child. The Forgotten Sister is heartbreaking but a excellent page turner.
Cassie and Erin are sisters, but Cassie is adopted. As Cassie gets just a little more older she wants the truth as to why she was adopted. Once Cassie is told the truth she is affected by what she had just been told about her birth mother, I did feel sorry for Cassie by what she had just been told, any young child must surely be affected in some way finding out the truth about a birth mother in why she gave up her own child.
I also did feel sorry for Cassie's adopted parents as they had brought up Cassie as their own daughter, and now their adopted daughter Cassie wants to know where she originally came from, but equally I'm sure most adopted parents must know that one day that question will be asked.
What will happen next, I can't tell you, but what I can tell you is that be prepared for a surprise twist, that I certainly didn't expect.
I've read lots of true books about fostering, that's why I totally got into the whole story of The Forgotten Sister.
If you haven't read The Second Child or The Forgotten Sister, I'm quite sure any one who loves reading, will not be able to put both of these books down.
