Please, Daddy, No - Stuart Howarth

This book was so good that I read it in ONE sitting.

An exceptional story.
A poignant true story.

Will tug at your heart-strings,
harder than ever before.

A tragic story,
filled with the worst of its kind,
the horrid wrong-doings of mankind,
only to have a triumphant ending!

I dare you to pick up this book,
I dare you to read from cover to cover,
I dare you to finish this book.

Take note, an excerpt from the book said:

We need to educate children and teach them about inappropriate behavior in schools, as part of their sex education. It's no good telling children 'Don't talk to strangers', because most victims of abuse know the perpetrators well. Most abusers are within families or in position of trust, so the child doesn't recognize that what they are doing is wrong.

.very very true.

PS: thanks to Vanessa for lending it to me.

PSS: If ever Howarth reads this, I would say hurrah for you! Your strength & perseverance inspired me!

Amanda, once again i thank you for your email and kind words. You make me very humble. It is important that we educate the world and help reduce pain and suffering. My next book will be released in feb 09 and is called 'too naughty to be loved' and continues the journey. I visited thailand last year and it is a beautiful country like the people. Today i sit on the beach in the carribean island of st lucia. You are a wonderful person and have great qualities. God bless you and aim for the stars. Stuart Howarth (ps pass the book on!)
