legal advocate,
By marcia gallucci (Spokane, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Very Own Book About Me: A Personal Safety Book (Paperback)
This book is really the best I've seen. It's so well written and easy to use for any age and several different applications. It is great for school prevention education. It can be used in the home for early childhood awareness and parent bonding. In a theraputic setting it helps to explain to young victims the dynamics of abuse and healing. I can also be used for parents and PTA type groups to educate the general public in sexual abuse, and to use in the court setting to educate jurors and attorneys as to how this type of crime happens. The special appeal also to parents who may have boy children who have been abused is valuable.
