4.0 out of 5 stars Unforgettable insight into the effects of early trauma ., 5 April 1998

By A Customer

After many years of fostering displaced and traumatized children, this book gave me landmark understanding of their emotional state and behaviors. I will never forget the recurring themes of the young children at play and have since found observing play as a valuable tool in unravelling the mysteries of trauma in toddlers. I am especially intrigued by the effects of pre-verbal trauma since many of the babies that have come through my home, or stayed by adoption, have told their "trauma stories" through their behaviors. They have no words yet to describe their experiences. The effects of sexual trauma at a very early age are well described in this book. It is something most of us would rather not think about, much less deal with on a daily basis in a three year old. This book has helped me do that. Another book that was very helpful along these lines was Unspeakable Acts, an account of a daycare sexual abuse case in Florida. While very graphic and detailed, more journalistic in style, it helped me recognize the many symptoms and effects of sexual abuse on very young children and also gave me insight into the bizarre psyches of the perpetrators.
