Please refer to my review on Meg Tilly's book "Gemma". "Singing Songs" was written in 1994 but is on the same subject (sexual abuse of a young girl) as "Gemma". I am now convinced that all children need to taught that abuse isn't necessarily done by strangers and they are not the one that is at fault. They need to have someone they can trust and turn to if someone is taking advantage of them. There are ways I never dreamed of that perverts can take advantage of our children and it is up to us to keep them save. I applaud Ms. Tilly for writing both of these books and I am glad that the Houston Chronicle wrote an article on "Gemma" or I would never have read either of them.
