Reading Response: Grace



There are many books and movies which are about the child abuse or the domestic violence. It is often seen on the evening news. Child abuse is including the neglect of children, physical abuse, sexual abuse, psychological, and emotional mistreatment.

The book is about a sixteen-year-old girl, Grace, who has been sexual abuse by her stepfather, and ran away from home. She met Eric who helped her during the depression. Eric accommodated and accompanied her. Eric is a diffidence boy. After they met each other, he became brave and strong. He gave her all, everything seems perfect. One day, the police came to their cabin and led away Grace. Two days after, Grace was beat to death of her stepfather. The author not only describes the brotherhood but also the parent-child relationship.

I observed this book in a book store, and I borrowed it from the library after several months. It is a really attractive novel. Child abuse scars for ever. In the present society, how many social questions and family questions among us. We should focuse on this issue.
