The topic of child abuse would not exist
in a perfect world, but it is unfortunately a modern day
reality that many parents must be prepared to deal with.
The following lists include fiction and non-fiction books
available for young readers, and books to help parents
deal with the subject. Once again, please be cautioned
that not all books are suitable for every young reader.

beliefs and values. Fiction for the younger child:
