Täger-Fiedler:So klein und so verlassen

The nurse pointed to the cot. Two large, sad blue eyes gazed fearfully out into the world from a delicate little face surrounded by shaggy blond hair. Tender little hands clutched the bars of the cot. There stood a little person, only a few months old, with the expression of an old person, bent over by sorrow and grief. This inner distress, this silent cry for help, touched the family deeply. Speechless, they looked into the child's sad eyes. A short time later, little Sarah moved in with them. When the Mertens family received the call from the youth welfare office, they had no idea what a turbulent time was in store for them with the new addition to the family. The little girl has never experienced love, has been neglected and passed around, and important developmental steps are missing. It will take years before Sarah gains confidence and can do everything that is appropriate for her age. But then the girl is abducted. In this book, author Beate Fiedler tells stories that life has written. When you're down, the most important thing is the hand that lifts you up. The sun's rays of humanity heal the greatest emotional wounds. A true story about love, family and solidarity.
