Sexual Abuse: The Child's Voice - Poppies on the Rubbish Heap

by Madge Bray - £22.99  Jessica Kingsley Publishers (2007)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781853024870 | ISBN 10: 1853024872

By first describing her methods and subsequently illustrating them with a selection of case studies, Madge Bray shows the reader how abuse can affect the mental well-being of children, and how the repair of the child's trust of adults is crucial to the process of healing. Guiding the reader and the child through the counselling process, she illustrates the devastation which abuse can cause, but also the resilience of children and the means they have to protect themselves from the reality of abuse. Sexual Abuse: The Child's Voice is a unique insight into the minds of abused children, providing a basis for therapeutic work.

"This book deserves to be widely read by all who have a direct role, or interest in, investigative and therapeutic work with children who have been abused. Highly recommended."
(Community Care)
"I wept and smiled and put the book down, finally, completely filled with admiration."
