The enemy resides in a space that was created for a friend to live; a place in your soul that was reserved for someone special, but is now crowded by someone else. You don''t recognize him because he has been there so long and you''ve grown accustomed to him; you''ve even made excuses for his presence. You used to try to get rid of him, but after many failed attempts at evicting him, you soon decided that his presence wasn''t as exhausting as the efforts to remove him. So he remains, and even though it is uncomfortable to have him there, he is at least familiar. He is someone you know very well-or so you think.

Annoncée comme déficiente mentale, elle se révélera, à force de patience, et parce que seront mis des mots sur les viols qu''elle a subis, une petite fille vive et intelligente... que Kathy aura bien du mal, des années plus tard, à laisser rejoindre son père. Elle raconte son expérience de maman par intérim : ses difficultés, ses échecs parfois, ses moments de joie. Elle montre comment l''équilibre familial, toujours précaire, est menacé lorsque arrive ou part l''un des enfants.

This story of one little girl''s journey through our foster-care system forms an intimate portrait of foster care in America and the children whose lives are forever shaped by it. Augusten Burroughs called Kathy Harrison''s memoir Another Place at the Table a "riveting and profoundly moving story of a hero, disguised as an everyday woman." In One Small Boat, Harrison tells the story of one little girl who arrived on her doorstep, and describes how caring for this child was an experience that challenged everything she thought she knew about foster-care parenting and the needs of the children she shelters. Daisy was five when she arrived in Harrison''s bustling home. Mother of three children by birth and three by adoption, and with a handful of foster kids always coming and going, Harrison had ten children under her roof at any given time. But Daisy was in many ways unique. Daisy''s birth mother wasn''t poor, uneducated, or drug addicted. She simply couldn''t bring herself to take care of her little girl, and the effects on the child were heartrending. Daisy was unwilling to eat—even frightened of it—and seemed to have a severe speech impediment. After two weeks in Kathy''s loving home, however, Daisy began to thrive. What had happened to her? And how can a foster-care parent give back all that has been taken from a child like Daisy—knowing that she might leave one day very soon? Harrison had seen many children pass through her doors, but this one touched her in a way she didn''t immediately understand. One Small Boat will be of deep interest to anyone who has nurtured and cared for a child or anyone interested in the intricate web that is our social welfare system.

The startling and ultimately uplifting narrative of one woman''s thirteen-year experience as a foster parent. For more than a decade, Kathy Harrison has sheltered a shifting cast of troubled youngsters-the offspring of prostitutes and addicts; the sons and daughters of abusers; and teenage parents who aren''t equipped for parenthood. All this, in addition to raising her three biological sons and two adopted daughters. What would motivate someone to give herself over to constant, largely uncompensated chaos? For Harrison, the answer is easy. Another Place at the Table is the story of life at our social services'' front lines, centered on three children who, when they come together in Harrison''s home, nearly destroy it. It is the frank first-person story of a woman whose compassionate best intentions for a child are sometimes all that stand between violence and redemption.
