2022 Purple Dragonfly Book Award Honorable Mention Rape is an extremely difficult topic to discuss with young children; however, it is a necessary conversation we must have. This book allows parents, teachers, counselors, administrators and those who work with children to create a responsible and safe space to talk about rape. The Me Too Movement is not just about adults but it is a conversation for children too. Statistics have shown that every nine minutes 1 in 9 girls and 1 and 53 boys will be sexually assaulted. We can no longer wait! The time is now to have this conversation. Little Miss Linda, as a rape survivor, learns to use her voice to express thoughts about rape, but not from feeling, out of shame or guilt. Instead, she develops a letter writing campaign to let other children know that rape is not the victim's fault. Little Miss Linda creates a community outreach program called STAR (Survivors Talking About Rape). She encourages other to not sit still but lift up their voices and be silent no more. Join the campaign against rape so we can STAR together.

Five Star Reviewed By Rylanne Burdette
Little Miss Linda Speaks about Rape is a challenging yet powerful read that hit my heart in a way that I wasn't expecting when I first picked it up. Although I have not experienced anything like this, I have several friends who have, and I think that this book, even though it is marketed as a children's book, would really impact them as well. The illustrations alongside the dialogue and plot all worked together to create a story that will stick with me for a long time. I would recommend Little Miss Linda Speaks about Rape by Linda J. M. Holloway to children who are in elementary school, but I also think that parents or other trusted adults should be present when it is read. This book is one that needs to be thought about and talked about during and after reading it.
Little Miss Linda Speaks about Rape by Linda J. M. Holloway is a must-read book.
