Using literature to help troubled teenagers cope with abuse issues

"This resource for teachers, parents, and anyone interested in helping teens battle the damage of abuse is divided into four subsections: neglect, emotional abuse, physical abuse, and sexual abuse. The book summarizes reports by mental health workers, organizations, and agencies, as well as their statistics, case studies, and important research findings dealing with each type of abuse. Useful Web links and information on finding the professional print resources cited throughout the book are included. Literary and professional perspectives are offered for each selected work of fiction, along with applications for utilizing the stories in a hypothetical therapy setting. Suggestions for additional fiction suitable for bibliotherapy conclude each section."--BOOK JACKET.
