Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Short but to the point - a useful gift
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.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A Review of the Basics
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.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beginning to heal
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"



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Much Needed

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.
other good reads are: Courage To Heal and Nightmares Echo
