Review of 'Our Only May Amelia (Harper Trophy Books)' on 'Goodreads'

Great book, but too much shame, blame and emotional abuse towards children is in it. It's likely to be true to the history, but still makes me cringe.
Great book to read and explain shame & emotional abuse to children. However, can be also serve as terrible reinforcement that shame, blame & emotional abuse is normal.
