Produktbeschreibung
We are all shaped or scarred by our childhood experiences. While some enjoy comfort and security, others endure cruelty, abuse and neglect, which will never end - unless they are helped. In this painfully honest and emotional account, the author - who suffered from trauma and grief in her childhood - explains how she healed her life in adulthood. Writing this book was part of her therapy and recovery. By reflecting on the significant events and emotions of her formative years, she reconnects with her inner child who she names Little One. Together they embark on the harrowing process of confronting loss, pain, fear and insecurity from their personal perspectives as both a child and adult. Despite their emotional, physical and psychological scars, there are some heart-warming memories that emerge too. Throughout the book, many wider important questions and issues are addressed concerning the attitudes of society, and successive governments, towards social care, mental health, parenting and education. With the help of counselling, a deep faith and writing, the author has gained the strength to rebuild her life and move on. Little One's Whisper is her creative story, which sets the scene for Little One to grow up, with the help of her friends Alma and Sofia. The author wants this to resonate with others; to offer them a voice and the opportunity of healing and hope for the future.

Autorenporträt
The author Annabel Iris Arco was born in Northern Ireland, and at the age of 10 months lost her mother to cancer. She struggled with this grief albeit silently and endured physical and emotional abuse. She showed great determination to gain the qualifications to become a secondary school teacher and was a very successful practitioner gaining 'outstanding' results and observations from Ofsted. Sadly, she became unwell with fibroids and subsequently lost her womb. This, coupled with the responsibility of caring for her sister during the school holidays took its toll. She decided to quit teaching and write a book that exposes the lack of social care and emotional support shown towards children and adults. The book is her voice, albeit a whisper, which she hopes will touch the lives of others and see government changes for the rights of both children and the disabled community in the UK. The author is currently working for a non-profit charity and helping children to overcome ACES (adverse childhood experiences) and redirect their lives away from crime and anti-social behaviour. She hopes the book can raise the capital to work with both the disabled and vulnerable children in a meaningful way. Her dream would allow her to set up an independent non-profit charity which is not constrained by government red tape, but rather has the ability to tend to the needs of the most hurting without justifying the criteria for intervention.
