Reviews
"Honest and comprehensive, this invaluable guide gives everyone concerned with children's care and safety the necessary tools to prevent or address everything from the neighbor down the street who gives you the 'willies' to inappropriate touch or the worst-case scenario. Definitely a must read." - Monsters and Critics, July 2, 2009 "well-written, meticulously researched, and full of hard facts" -- Sacramento Book Review, August 2009
