Hmm I really shouldn't read books like this, I don't like them but always forget that when I start one. I can't think of anything really to say.

A great insight into the work done by the child protection unit and social services. Though the individual cases are heart breaking. I will be looking out for more of his books in the future.

‘Hurting Too Much’ is a deeply sad and moving account of little Harry and Ella who endure a horrible childhood, with as the author describes as ‘one of the most alarming cases of child abuse he’d ever witnessed’. This tale is certainly that. Harry puts the account across very well, making this easy to read despite the awful subject matter. It gives a good insight into what it’s really like to work in the frontline of child protection, and how harrowing it is to be involved in such cases. This is a fascinating read, and I hope Harry and Ella have gone on to achieve great things despite the great adversities they have endured.
