Although this book is filled with many disturbing and tragic scenes, it is also filled with hope and love. While this book may not be of interest to everybody, I think it’s a must read for anyone involved with children in foster care: foster parents, birth parents, social workers, therapists, teachers, judges, etc. I personally know many devoted and compassionate foster parents, and cannot imagine anyone becoming a foster parent with malevolent intentions. I found this book engrossing, yet quite disturbing in many ways, especially her stories of abuse and neglect at the hands of foster families. Her first memoir, 'Three Little Words' has been published in multiple countries and is used in classrooms and University settings nationally. As a foster parent myself, I know firsthand the injustices and often appalling condition of the system. Ashley Rhodes-Courter, LCSW is a former foster youth, Keynote Speaker, advocate, and New York Times Bestselling Author. Three Little Words by Ashley Rhodes-Courter (2008)Ī moving and eye-opening story of resilience!
