Anyone ever read it? It is probably one of the most compelling books I have ever read. By the end of chapter one I was reduced to a quivering, sobbing lump on the couch. Powerful, powerful read.
I truly believe that this is a book that every single person alive should read. Child abuse touches the lives of everyone, whether you realize it or not. In our country alone, it is estimated that one out of five children is the victim of abuse. How we have stood by and let this happen is astounding.
If you are, or have been, a victim, read this book. It, and the books that follow it, will give you hope for yourself and for your future.
If you know a victim or perpetrator, read this book. It will motivate you not to stand by and watch.
Everyone else, read this book! An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. If we turn our back on our children, we turn our backs on our future. Awareness is key. Only when evil is brought to light can it be dealt with and brought to an end.
