行为乖戾的孩子往往不讨人喜欢，对他们多一点耐心，多付出一点关爱，也许，他们的一生会因你而改变……
My work was to drive a school bus. Charlie was eight and he always made trouble on the bus.
Charlie’s father was dead and he didn’t live with his mother. So I tried my best to show the child some kindness.
One day, I got a small tin heart from a little girl as a gift.
On the last day of school, I found that the tin heart was gone. "Does anyone know what happened to the little heart?" I asked.
One boy said, "Charlie was the first one on the bus. I am sure he took it."
"Have you seen the tin heart?"
"I don’t know what you’re talking about," Charlie said.
"Check his pockets!" the children said.
I put my hand into one pocket. Nothing. I reached into the other pocket. Then I felt it. Charlie looked at me for a long time. There were no tears in those big eyes. "Let him keep it," said a voice in my heart.
"I must have dropped it before I got here," I said to the children.
Many years later, I was in a supermarket when someone said, "Polly?" I turned to see a middle-aged man.
It was Charlie. Then he pulled something out of his pocket —the little tin heart.
"You were the only one who kept trying to help me," he explained and hugged me.
