SEMI-LARGE PRINT PAPERBACK (6"x9") also available on Kindle e-book Four year old Katie is sexually abused by her father and witnesses her mother's murder. Her uncle's wife, Carolyn O'Gorman, insists on continuing to raise the little angel as her own. However, Carolyn soon discovers that little Katie willfully creates situations that are bound to tax her sanity. Life becomes more complicated when a second abused child, Luis Walker, enters their lives. As Katie grows into adulthood, Carolyn and the extended family painstakingly try to guide her in the right direction, but Katie has plans of her own and will not see the light until the family faces one final tragedy. Emily's Hope is definitely not what one would expect of such a serious topic. The reader will encounter more laughs than tears. Emily's Hope is a delightful and wonderfully uplifting tale.

Ms. Rosa is a retired New York City school teacher who taught for thirty-two years. She first developed an interest in child abuse cases in 1987, after reading about little Lisa Steinberg who was tortured to death at the age of six by her guardian, a New York attorney. The author spent a decade trying to understand the guardian's cruelty toward such a little child. Then her friendly gastroenterologist, Dr. Marlene D. Galizi, gave her a simple and functional explanation that she could accept-"It's about control." Keeping that in mind, twenty years after Lisa's death, C. Scoushe Rosa was able to compose Emily's Hope. Ms. Rosa enjoys being a part of New York's diverse population and entertains herself with several hobbies, including writing about her perceptions of the individuals and situations she encounters.
