Dawn is the second child Cathy Glass and her husband fostered, and she's a very disturbed girl. Rejected by her parents and running from secrets she believes are too horrible to redeem, Dawn is broken and lost. At 13 she stays out all night, drinks, cuts herself, skips school, and attempts suicide more than once. But she can also be a pleasant and agreeable child who shows affection and seeks the approval of her caregivers.This story is easy to read in terms of language choice and narrative flow, and difficult in terms of subject matter. Seeing Dawn's story unfold and feeling Cathy's love, concern, frustration, and despair provides a visceral, moving experience. I felt for Cathy, sympathizing with her desire to provide Dawn the loving, stable environment the girl desperately needed, but unable to overcome a broken system and even more broken girl. I was frustrated for her, John, and Barbara. I felt each of them wanted what was best for Dawn, even Barbara, in her own flawed way. But the system, meant to help threatened and disadvantaged children, seemed to do more harm than good. My heart broke for Dawn, and the more Cathy revealed about her past, the more I hoped she would somehow be able to turn it all around and claim the happy life she deserved.While I enjoyed the story a great deal, I can only give 4 stars because I felt Glass occasionally went into far too much detail. There's a fine line between providing enough detail to orient the reader fully within with story, and too much detail. I felt a number of the instances of "I did this, followed by this, followed by this" neither advanced the plot nor revealed necessary information about the people involved. I found there were passages I wanted to skip just to get back to the plot, and that was discouraging. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ confronting but hard to put down *by J***H on Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2014* I found it hard to put down. I was horrified at the total lack of information and support from foster care agency they were given with this disturbed young girl and are so thankful things have changed since Cathy Glass first fostered this child. The commitment and dedication for months are to be applauded when their lives were so negatively affected for weeks on end through lack of sleep and worry, especially with a new baby. Not enough credit is given to foster carers for the work they do. The courage and resilience of the young girl as she eventually stabilises and engages fully in her recovery with caring support is heart warming. The true hero of the book. I loved the updates at end of book. It touches on coping mechanisms which the young girl engaged in which outwardly were very confronting for her carers but educational for readers in the way portrayed and explained. Another story of how adults can unbelievably perpetrate immeasurable abuse and damage on a child but that child with love and support can sometimes overcome some of the terrible damage. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ good read *by D***B on Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2022* love cathy glass books. couldnt put it down --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/8693930-cut-the-true-story-of-an-abandoned-abused-little-girl](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/8693930-cut-the-true-story-of-an-abandoned-abused-little-girl) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
