About this title: In 1976 twentysix California children were kidnapped from their school bus and buried alive for motives never explained. All the children survived.

"This book provides fabulous insight into the long-term effects of trauma on children. Terr presents her longitudinal study of a group of children hijacked while on a school bus and left to die. This is a great resource for clinicians wanting to understand the experiences of children who have been traumatized. Also, several suggestions for treatment with this population were given."
"This is a great psychology read that shows the impact of childhood trauma permeating older generations (as the children age). I read it for a graduate level class; however, this is a good read for everyone."
"I read this book to help me as I work with many traumatized children. I would caution anyone interested in reading this book. It contains disturbing descriptions of physical and sexual abuse and other physical trauma to children. It is not a pleasant read. However, I learned so much about the nature of trauma and how it affects children; and how childhood trauma can affect individuals and entire families throughout their lives.
The author was interested in how trauma affected children, but there were no longitudinal studies done. After a mass kidnapping in a small US town, she had the perfect set up for her study. The book continually goes back to this story, but also describes many other children's situations and how they were affected. This book is clear and not too technical. Although some of the stories are disturbing, the author is sensitive and only shares enough details to illustrate her points. And she does this very well. I not only gained increased understanding of my clients, but of myself as well."
