Laurie is eleven. She is being sexually abused by her father. What can she do to make it stop? Who can she tell? In this fictional book, simply written, children come to understand that they are not alone - that many people in their community will be there to help them and their families heal.
"This little gem of a book will be a treasured
friend for children who face troubled home lives, and all readers will come away from it with a deepened understanding of the difficult journey that abused children face."
-- School Library Journal

"Poignant, authentic-sounding, first-person narrative that both makes its point (abuse must be revealed) and packs an emotional wallop."
-- Booklist
"(An) Excellent portrayal of feelings experienced by a child who has been sexually abused by her own father... I wish this book were in all middle school libraries, so that children experiencing this same loneliness and pain would be empowered to reach out for help... Written in a sensitive, non-graphic manner, the message in this book is encouraging and hopeful...Highly recommended!"
