Sarah's Waterfall Sarah,
an elementary-school-age survivor of sexual abuse, has come to live
with her beloved grandmother. Sarah’s Waterfall tells the
story of Sarah’s year of healing, in her own words. The story
unfolds as journal entries beginning with the start of the school year
at a new school, as Sarah joins a girls survivors’ group led
by the school psychologist. Sarah makes friends with another young
survivor, Paula, who has frizzy hair, a whole bunch of pets, and a
great sense of humor. Surrounded by Gram’s safe and loving
presence, Sarah can begin to heal and enjoy life again. As the year
unfolds, she writes poems, develops her first close friendship, gains
new skills to overcome her past, and at her counselor’s
encouragement, draws beautiful waterfalls as a symbol of her health and
wholeness. Through her journal, Sarah also describes some of the
healing exercises used in her survivors’ group at school.
Gorgeous colour illustrations support Sarah’s story.

Sarah’s Waterfall is a marvelous tool for helping girls 7-12,
especially; it will also appeal to adult women survivors wanting to
enhance their own sense of well-being. Though created as a work of
fiction, Sarah’s Waterfall was written by a survivor for
survivors to provide a healing story about sexual abuse.

The
Survivor's Guide "...sexual
abuse can make a person feel confused, ashamed and all kinds of other
things...
you should know that these effects are from the abuse, not from you. It
is not
because you are bad, it is because what happened to you is bad and the
people
who abused you should not have done those things to you." A nice but small guide.
