Christine Sandor signing her books! DESCRIPTION:Join us in welcoming Christine Sandor to The Toadstool Bookshop in Keene! She will talk about her books and gladly autograph them for you.
Warming the Stone Children is a true story of mother-daughter sexual abuse. It explores Christine's experience of recovering and dealing with the memories that were hidden and blocked for over thirty years\, and how coming home to the God she always believed was with her was the catalyst in her healing process.
Dealing with the loss of a loved one is a painful experience for anyone. But for a child\, death can expose issues that adults either aren't prepared to handle or don't recognize in the first place. This Is Not Goodbye provides vital direction for those helping children through this intense and emotional ordeal.
