About this ebook
An uplifting true story from foster carer and Sunday Times bestselling author, Angela Hart.
Why has no one given Jasmine the safety and care she desperately needs? Angela is determined to find a solution.
Jasmine is a little girl with a difficult upbringing whose current foster carers have refused to keep her on as they can no longer handle her behaviour. Social Services place her with specialist foster carer Angela Hart. Angela does her best to provide a secure environment for Jasmine in the hope that she can begin to move on, but it proves challenging as Jasmine often breaks out in bursts of anger and sometimes physical violence. Can Angela show Jasmine what safety looks like? And can she help Jasmine's beloved grandparents – who have been campaigning to become her full-time guardians – persuade social services that they are best placed to look after this troubled little girl?
The Girl with the Saddest Secret is the eighth book from well-loved foster carer Angela Hart. A true story that shares the tale of one of the many children she has fostered over the years. Angela's stories show the difference that quiet care, a watchful eye and sympathetic ear can make to those children whose upbringing has been less fortunate than others.

Good sad reality for so many.Maybe prochoice and better access to products to put a stop this baby before it begins.Most of this is due to mother's resent ment for her oops.....and fathers for vast majority in a hit and run situation don't care you were a cum dumpster.sorry girls.thats how men think about most hot to trot chic's.So be smart...and if you play.and you lose take care of it before it's our problem 😶🤪😝😤 and fight for your right to walk away like. He will... PROCHOICE ITS NOT A BABY YET JUST CELLS.CRY BE MAD.BUT REMEMBER YOU MADE THIS SITUATION.FIX IT SO NO UNLOVED CHILD IS EVER BORN.😠
