No Language But a Cry...you MUST read!,
By Janet (Malaysia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Language But a Cry (Laurel-Leaf Library) (Mass Market Paperback)
It's incredibly difficult to find the exact words to describe how powerful I found this book. The devastating story about Laura made me realize that there is always hope in life. Beaten and abused as a child...and even put in a frying pan, people thought that Laura never stood a chance in life. However, Dr. D'Ambrosio proved them wrong. After 5 years of trying to reach out to this poor girl, he was finally rewarded when she decided to come out of her shell. An excellent story, and well worth the read... No Language But a Cry will take you on a journey through depression, schizophrenia, and abuse. But at the end, happiness will find its way to you. Read this!

Dedication and courage taken to the limit,

This review is from: No Language But a Cry (Hardcover)
I read this book many years ago and have been trying to get my hands on a copy for my daughter. This is the most remarkable story I have ready. The courage of Laura and the dedication of the doctor and the nuns made me feel so humble. I have no hesitation in recommending this book.

One of the best books I've ever read.,
By Nikki (noemaronii@hotmail.com) (Yokosuka, Japan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Language But a Cry (Laurel-Leaf Library) (Mass Market Paperback)
Richard D'Ambrose is an amazing writer who knows just how to capture the feeling the little girl felt as she made her way to freedom of her haunting past. This is my favorite book of all time. I highly recomend this for people interested in learing about psychology.
