A very sad book by L. Jonsson (Charleston, SC United States)  5 Stars
August 12, 2004
but it is a story that needs to be told. Contexts and causes, risk factors for SBS, consequences, grief and punishment, and intervention and prevention are all covered here. Ann-Janine Morey has a very sensitive writing style, you sympathize with all the people (including the murderer), and she makes ordinary people fascinating. A very moving book, you will be crying by the end of it. The death of a child-any child-is always horrible.

a story that needs to be told by JANET SIMMONS (DECATUR, ILLINOIS United States) 5 Stars
June 02, 2001
as a mother of a child who was severely shaken I found this book very hard to read at first. But this is a story that must be told. People must become aware of this needless senseless hideous crime and the author of this book tells the real story. I highly recomend this book.

I thought that this book was very sad. It is so cruel how a father could treat a baby like that.

I really care about shaken baby syndrome it is very sad how people actually do this to child.When the child has done nothing in this world, the child has not even asked to be in this world. I think it is a very sad and bad issue.
