Follow the story of Aaron, a young boy and the victim of child abuse. Experience through his eyes how the lack of support, proper education, and encouragement warped his life and affected his perspective on reality.
Inspired by the author's experiences and interviews, A Boy Named Aaron examines the effect abuse has on a child and how it shapes their development.
Aaron suffers as a victim of child abuse at the hands of his mother. At school, he doesn't have a group of peers or teachers to help him through his difficult life-and a lack of nurturing at home has forced him to create a harsh shell of self-preservation around himself. The effects of the abuse begin to manifest as Aaron grows up, directly affecting society.
A Boy Named Aaron features a unique narrative in a contemporary setting. Not only does the author expertly capture the mind of a child; he also creates a balance of explaining abuse in nuanced terms while demonstrating how certain so-called character flaws are developed.
Contemporary fiction readers will find A Boy Named Aaron a heart-felt, fast-paced read. Full of dysfunctional family dynamics, a unique perspective of child abuse, and the very real implications of how abuse manifests as a human grows, A Boy Named Aaron is a great pick for adult readers 25 to 55 with children.
