About this listen

 Amelie just wants a home she feels safe in…

Six-year-old Amelie lives with her mother, Kelly, who suffers from bipolar disorder. After Kelly attempts to burn down their family house, it becomes clear that her daughter is in grave danger. Amelie is quickly taken into care.

When she arrives with foster carer Casey Watson, Amelie acts much younger than her age. Casey must get to the root of Amelie’s behaviour, while doing what she can to keep the family together.

Will Amelie ever find the safety of home?

Perfect for readers who were moved by Casey's previous titles I Want My Daddy, I Just Want to Be Loved and Mummy Please Don't Leave – powerful true stories of vulnerable children, resilience, and the life-changing impact of foster care.

Really enjoyed this book and great out come for little Emily. Also a reminder of the effects of lockdown on us all.

Another great read by Casey Watson

The narrator is reading like it’s a comedy as opposed to a serious story and the voices for different people are frankly insulting to those people especially Amelie’s voice. Author should have got a different narrator

Narrator was awful and silly voices

I love Casey Watson's books, but Kate Lock does a real disservice to her works with her unnatural pauses and unusual emphasis on certain words. It makes it really hard to relax into listening, because it is just so strange with her pitch changes and pacing. It's really grating and painful to listen to. I have ADHD and find it hard to focus at the best of times, but the way this is narrated makes it harder to follow. I really can't describe it accurately.

The narration is so stilted

I have enjoyed reading Casey Watson books. I decided to get this one on audible. The story is good but what an awful narrator, totally wrong for the Casey Watson books. I suggest listening to the preview first. Sounds like I’m not the only one who agrees it’s bad. Definitely need to put the reading speed up. The narrator puts on ridiculous voices for the people in the book and sounds robotic which totally ruins it.

Needs a different narrator
