When You Know What I Know | Sonja K. Solter
2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
A sensitive, harrowing, and ultimately hopeful novel in verse about one girl's journey in the aftermath of abuse. One day after school, on the couch in the basement, Tori's uncle did something bad. Afterward, Tori tells her mom. Even though telling was a brave thing to do, her mom still doesn't believe her at first. Her grandma still takes his side. And Tori doesn't want anyone else--even her best friend--to know what happened. Now Tori finds herself battling mixed emotions-anger, shame, and sadness--as she deals with the trauma. But with the help of her mom, her little sister, her best friend, and others, can Tori find a way to have the last word? From debut author Sonja K. Solter comes a heartbreaking yet powerful novel that will strike a chord with readers of Jacqueline Woodson and Tony Abbott.

A MG novel in verse from the POV of an 11-year-old sexual abuse survivor. Not graphic. Despite the difficult topic, I wish this book was on the shelf of every middle grade classroom so children know they aren‘t alone, they can tell, their confusion, anger, & other emotions are normal and that there will be good things in life again. With 1 in 9 girls & 1 in 53 boys experiencing sexual abuse, there is no reason to hide this topic from kids.
