Description 268 pages : colour illustrations ; 23 cm Summary “How can you see bruises that massive and not care? Not even say "is everything alright at home?”(Diaries, age 16) This beautifully illustrated colour book provides a young Australian's devastating account of 'slipping through the cracks' of the child protection, education and support systems. Hannah has bravely shared her teenage diaries to provide rare insights into the experience of child abuse. She describes her criminal justice system ordeal, and the ongoing impacts of the abuse on her life. To conclude, Hannah provides her advice for those who are supporting young people who may have been abused. She also outlines her ideas for system reform so that young people are better protected than she was Analysis Australian Notes Mental wellbeing Subject Baker, Hannah, 1988 -- Diaries Baker, Hannah, 1988- Sexual abuse victims -- Australia -- Anecdotes.
