Summary: How to overcome a painful childhood
Comment: Each chapter is the true story of a child who endured terrible physical, emotional, and/or sexual abuse, yet managed to grow into an adult capable of working, loving, giving, and enjoying. Many of the abuses are so horrific, and the stories and characters are so well-drawn, that it is impossible not to weep for these children, or to be awed by their heroic strength. I found the last chapter particularly interesting and useful: it is a list and description of the characteristics these resilient children had in common. Learning and applying these characteristics, even as an adult, can give individual suffering some meaning and lead to a happier life. I have given this book to my friends who continue to struggle against the effects of terrible childhoods. Recognizing themselves in the book is healing in and of itself. My friends and I are grateful to Ms. Rubin for this helpful work.
