Salkind uses her child like drawings and text to expresses her experiences, views and knowledge in a very clear and sysinct fashion -- and can be used as an eye opener to adults who want to live their lives in denial regarding the ramifications child sexual abuse can play in the lives of those who have been victimized.
Wendy J. Murphy, CBS News Legal Analyst stated: "More Than Once Upon a Time” is a dark and empowering tale of abuse and recovery. Betsy Salkind writes in the voice of a child but with the perspective of an adult, about a topic kids can't possibly comprehend when they're little. This is what makes the book so brilliant. It imagines what children would say, if they could - in language blissfully free of the multi-syllabic stuff we tend see in adult books that try to accomplish in hundreds of pages what this book does in a couple dozen".
One survivor who read the book, jokingly suggested that you send a copy of the book to your perpetrator for a holiday gift.
All I can say is thank you Betsy, you’ve done it again!
