Can saving a child's life be as easy as picking up a book? In this case, it might be. Join the author, Sara, through the true horrors of her life as a child taken into foster care far too late. Learn to look for early signs of child abuse and when it should be reported. Get a first-hand account on transitioning into foster care, being moved through multiple foster homes, and aging out of foster care alone. Childhood trauma affects everyone and does not disappear by simply removing the perpetrators. Victims will continue to be victimized if we do nothing. This book is not intended to place blame on social workers and foster parents for their actions or inactions, but to pave the way going forward. This book is an excellent tool for people who work on the front lines of child welfare to get more insight into how their actions affect others. Sara turns the tragedies she's experienced into learning opportunities for the reader. Wherever you are in your personal life, there will be something for you in this book. Be ready to feel uncomfortable. Only through discomfort can we find growth.
