Industry Reviews Gr 7-Up A broad, objective, and competently written book. Unlike previous writings about this subject, this title discusses concerns about minors' access to the Internet and explains the phenomenon of repressed memories. A thorough history of sexual abuse, the characteristics and treatment of abusers, and a discussion about the effects of abuse on victims are also included. Myth/fact boxes that highlight and correct common misconceptions appear throughout the text. Information on how to avoid being victimized and what to do if you or someone you know is dealing with sexual abuse is provided, as are lists of helpful organizations and hotlines. Both students doing reports and victims of abuse will find this book to be highly readable, comprehensive, and useful. Melissa Gross, Beverly Hills Public Library, CA Lopate
