Description

Joseph's Story is about a boy in need of family care and the response of a foster family to this need. Joseph's Story is touching as it traces the journey of a troubled boy from the turmoil of his home, into the home of a foster family. It is not an easy journey.

The story raises issues of rejection, grief and misunderstanding that are typical of a child or young person unable to live with his or her own family.

Joseph's Story honours all children and young people who are unable to live with their own families. It also honours foster families for their generosity of love in responding to the needs of troubled children and young people.
