5.0 out of 5 stars Written from her heart.

Yolanda writes about what she does best...Helping children through what is probably the worse experience in their life. Her expertise in the field is reflected in the way that the Social Worker in the book helps Shanti release the pain she has been carrying around without knowing what to do about it. This book should be read in all elementary school classrooms because Shanti’s experience is not unique. I believe that Shanti’s Safe Place can accomplish Yolanda’s goal of hopefully helping a child release some of the pain these horrific secrets can cause and help them move on to enjoy the carefree life they are entitled to. I have ordered a copy for my niece to use in her elementary school classroom. My best hope is that it will help a child relieve their pain.

This was a wonderfully written book for kids! It is my hope that many children will have the opportunity to read it! I purchased a few and look forward to sharing it with friends of mine who have children. Stranger danger is a thing of the past, I am sadly seeing that abuse is happening to too many kids by people who are very close in their circles. Special shout out to all of the mandated reporters, we appreciate you!

Abuse amongst children is an epidemic, particularly sexual abuse. Not only is this book necessary, but education on this topic is long overdue. Cheers to the author for taking on the challenge to bring this often hidden subject to light.
