DO NOT READ THIS BOOK BEFORE BED!!!!
Not because it is gruesome, or horrific, or anything like that, but because you, my friend, will be unable to part with it. I was pulled, as if in a dream into this incredible masterpiece by Baroness Orczy, and while I couldn’t stop reading, I also never wanted to part with it. Her plot twists are Agatha Christy level and I can’t even begin to count the amount of gasps uttered from my lips as I sailed through this book. It’s the kind of book you end ready to reread (again, and again, and again). Also, will I be hated if I say that I feel that her romantic writing is as good (if not slightly better) as Jane Austen…?

A fascinating study on the crisis which is silently taking over the minds of children. Whether you work with children or not, this book is a must read, and one which holds an important warning, calling us to action.
