Read in the 90’s, juvenile chapter book, drawing of a girl on the front cover sitting in a window, possibly holding a cat. The girl suffered abuse, I want to say physical abuse.

Are there any time travel or fantasy elements to the story? Because

Cat's Magic
came to mind from the cover description and decade. I don't think there's overt abuse, but MC is a orphan staying with an aunt she doesn't get along with.

Otherwise, might be here: YA Abuse - https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/2...

Cats Magic isn’t it. I will look on that list and keep my eye out here. Thank you though.

There was not any time travel or fantasy. It is a realistic/contemporary fiction.

The girl on the cover is sitting sideways wearing a stripped sweater.

Does anything on this list look familiar?

Kids Overcoming Abusive Situations

[mdt]

Silver by Norma Fox Mazer?

or
Don't Hurt Laurie by Willo Davis Roberts

The cover for Cages is also kinda similar.



MC has a drunk and verbally abusive father.
