Children's Storybooks on Abuse (Part 3)

In the final installment of Lauren's series on books that help kids deal with hard topics, she's sharing 4 more books. In this episode, Lauren gives an overview of each book and her recommendations for adapting it to kids in different age groups. We want to protect our kids, but to do that, we need to give them the language to explain their experiences. It's good to educate them earlier and young and allow them to feel comfortable expressing themselves in uncomfortable situations. And, as always, Lauren gives some great ideas for how to easily modify these for your younger kiddos.Different books resonate with different people, kids, and situations so make sure to look these up online and check the reviews to see what other people are saying.Does Blake Keep the Secret?
