Hushed Cries

According to Child Help at least five children die from abuse and neglect every day. The ones who survive walk away with an everlasting scar in their hearts. Dorthea L. Hughes's honest vulnerable yet ultimately victorious memoir about surviving child sexual abuse will encourage others in similar situations serve as a precautionary tale to keep them from going down the all-too- common path of self-destruction and help those who care about young people recognize the warning signs and stop the abuse from continuing.
