st place, Picture Books ages amp amp older, 2 Purple Dragonfly AwardThis is a book for children who have experienced parental neglect and have been taking care of many things on their own.Every kid needs a grown-up who takes care of them and is kind to them.  When kids don amp rsquo t have the care, love, and attention that they need while growing up, they can feel lonely, sad, angry, or worried. Sometimes these feelings can cause problems with other behaviors, too.Somebody Cares follows children who have experienced neglect and helps them understand their associated feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. It helps kids prepare for changes that occur as they and their families begin to receive help, whether they remain in their homes or transition to a kinship or foster family.And, mostly, Somebody Cares teaches kids that they were not to blame for their experiences and that they were brave to do so much on their own. Includes a Note to Readers inside for children and an online Note to Parents and Caregivers for adults.

Recensioner i media

It is a commonplace in the field of child protection to observe that amp quot neglect is neglected. amp quot Thus, a book for children experiencing neglect is much needed, if for no other reason than so that adults have the guidance and support necessary for providing children with the support they need. Susan Straus has accomplished this in her book Somebody Cares. Having interviewed maltreated children myself I welcome this inviting volume as a tool to enter into a dialogue with children about the adversity in their lives and how to find a positive path forward. - James Garbarino, PhD, Loyola University Chicago
