Reading another Torey Hayden Book… October 20, 2008

Just started yesterday evening another Torey Hayden book. Her books are just awesome! She is an educational psychologist and special education teacher. She has taught classes in public schools, hospitals, and mental institutions and has done research on elective mutism, physical and sexual abuse in children and bullying. In her books she tell true stories about her experiences with disturbed children. The children´s stories are really schocking. I´ve got tears in my eyes so many times when I´ve read her books, because the things she discribes have really happened to a child. When reading her book it becomes so obvious that when children are having really bad behavioral problems or other problems at an early age they are often because of a trauma. Somethings has happened (or is happening alla the time) to them that should not have happened. I´ve bough quite many of her books as paperbacks. Some are in Finnish, some in English and some I bought in Stockolm and they are in Swedish. These books are my all-time favourites!!!
