Customer Rating:      Summary: Short but to the point - a useful gift Comment: This book is aimed at people who were sexually abused as children and are avoiding the subject of their past or don't think it is relevant to their problems of the present. If you care about someone who is clearly failing to cope with life in general, and you believe they have been abused, then this book makes an excellent gift. It is delicate and offers examples to introduce the topic. It is surprisingly compact, with a fairly simple message, that will hopefully lead to empowerment to take the next step.
Out of the pile of books I purchased to educate myself and give to my survivor friend, this book was the one I chose to give her first. It is thin and short, so hopefully it won't frighten her off reading it. I was quite nervous about giving it to her, but it was appreciated. She didn't think it would be helpful though and I haven't convinced her to open it quite yet. I know it is what she needs to do. Being light on the details, it will need to be replaced with something heavier down the track. If we get to that point it will have been *so* worth it!
Customer Rating:      Summary: A Review of the Basics Comment: This book is a very good review for your self of esteem at this diffucult time in your life. It's very easy to read and its not too long either. Personally, for me I thought it was too basic. I need more help than it gave. I need more to do with what happens in adult hood to help you get over or deal with what happend when you were a little younger. Like preteen. This book focuses on children that were abused and not preteens.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Beginning to heal Comment: An excellent book for survivors who are starting to deal with the effects of childhood sexual abbuse.
A perfect prelude to the comprehensive extension "the courage to heal"
Customer Rating:      Summary: Much Needed Comment: Like their other book, "Courage To Heal", this book is a must read for those in the abused community. It will help you to understand so much of what goes on inside the minds of those that have been abused. A Book that should be read by everyone, abused or not. Prevalant information and help, as well as inspirational.
