What happened next - By: dizzyshelly, 13 Feb 2007
This book is definately makes you think.

After reading One Child, you can't help feeling completely saddened by whas has happened to Sheila but also there is a sense of a happy ending to this book.

Tiger's Child totally opens your eyes to the reality. Its easy to think that Sheila's life will naturally improve just because she has seen happier times, but this book shows howin some ways, the help she had was not necessarily all that was needed. I am glad however that Sheila has managed to become her own person & lead a contented life.

If only we had more people that were able to help the way Torey Hayden can!
Tiger's Child - By: Scott, 03 Dec 2006
WOW!! It's 2am & i've literally just finished this amazing book & had to write my review whilst my thoughts are freshin my head.... This is an absolute 'must read'! But to fully appriciate the emotional journey that both Sheila & Torey make you must read 'One Child' first. The true story of a very troubled little girl- sheila, saved by a truely amazing woman, Torey Hayden. They begin as teacher & student, but as the story unfolds it is clear that they have a very srong bond together. Torey is a remarkable person & a very talented writer. Both books are truely inspiring, & I urge just about anybody to pick up there copies.
Read 'One Child' First - By: Gracetheface, 07 Feb 2006
This book is brilliant. However, for it to be brilliant you must read Torey Hayden's prequel 'One Child'.
The book is very touching & emotional. If you cant handle your emotions, dont read it.
The ending could have been better by making everyone happy & Torey adopting her but its not a story book & theres never going to be the perfect ending.
Tiger's Child is a "must read" - By: Robin Whitcomb, 24 Aug 2005
I have recently read Tiger's Child & was completely absorbed with Torey & Sheila's story. I hadn't realised until I began to read the book that it was a sequel to One Child, which I am now reading. I urge everyone to read these beautiful & inspiring books. Torey teaches patience & love can overcome hardship & sadness. This is something we all need to remember at times. First class.
Utterly Brilliant - By: , 26 Jul 2005
THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING. Not only is Torey Hayden an inspirational, devoted woman, she is an articulate, witty & talented writer. I really enjoyed 'One Child', her heartbreaking, yet brilliant story of the emotionally disturbed shiela, & this follow-up is truly amazing; it's insightful, honest, emotive, & well written. I could not put it down. Torey Hayden deserves the utmost respect from us all, she really is a wonderful woman. If your deliberating buying this book, do not hesitate, purchase both of these amazing stories & you will NOT be disappointed, they show us the true strength of love & determination of both Torey & Shiela. Torey emotively & successfully recalls her involvement with shiela as a child, & as she blossomed into an intelligent, amazing young woman.
