Seven-year-old Venus Fox never spoke, never listened, never even acknowledged the presence of another human being in the room with her. Yet an accidental playground bump would release a rage frightening to behold. The school year that followed would be one of the most trying, perplexing, and ultimately rewarding of Torey Hayden's career, as she struggled to reach a silent child in obvious pain. It would be a strenuous journey beset by seemingly insurmountable obstacles and darkened by truly terrible revelations yet encouraged by sometimes small, sometimes dazzling breakthroughs as a dedicated teacher remained committed to helping a hopeless girl, and patiently and lovingly leading her toward the light of a new day. 541 $d 20220721. 600 1 $a Fox, Venus. 650 $a Problem children $x Education $z United States $v Case studies. 650 $a Abused children $z United States $v Biography. 650 $a Special education teachers $z United States $v Biography. 650 $a Mute persons $x Rehabilitation. 655 7 $a Case studies. 655 7 $a Biographies. 941 $a 1 952 $l VUPB454 $d 20221022012222.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=108606AC3B0511EDADB189BD42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
