Summary of Maureen Wood's A Family Secret

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was five years old when I was taken into care, to live in a Catholic children's home called Nazareth House in Glasgow. I was reunited with my two older sisters. I missed the easy affection of my grandparents' home. #2 I loved being in the home. I preferred the predictability and safety of it to the uncertainty and chaos of my mother's home.
I was happy there, day to day, until I was taken away at age seven. #3 I loved to pull threads out of the pink bedspread that covered my blankets. I was nervous about going to school, but I was well fed and well dressed, so I was happy. #4 I had a difficult time in school, and was bullied. I spent most of my time reading, and would often hide myself away in the still of the bedroom. Jock was a fierce competitor with my father, and would often argue with him.
