Reviews for The A-Z of Survival Strategies for Therapeutic Parents: From Chaos to Cake

As an adopter myself, living and breathing trauma, this book offers a lifeline for essential maintenance to sustain us for the long haul. It made me laugh out loud, reminding me that the 'crazy universe' I now inhabit is not such an isolating experience, despite it sometimes feeling that way. -- Louise Michelle Bombèr, adoptive parent, author and Director of TouchBase Centre
