- Elly Danica is an author and professional speaker who delivers a powerful message regarding child abuse and the rights of women and children. Elly first began accepting speaking engagements in Canada and Europe after the 1988 release of her first book, titled Don't: A Woman's Word. The autobiographical book, which exposed the horrors of child abuse, gained international attention and changed the lives of countless individuals.
Elly's second book, Beyond Don't: Dreaming Past the Dark, continues the narrative, but shifts from a personal viewpoint to a strong political stance lobbying for changes in society.

Don't: A Woman's Word por Elly Danica
This book was a horror story. I bought it because I had been abused as a very very young child and thought it might help me. All it did was show me how lucky I was, that life could have been so much worse. It also rubbed my nose in the fact that this kind of thing is rampant in the world and that knowledge is so sickening and painful and makes me, as a woman, feel helpless and hopeless. This is a book to give nightmares. If I were a praying woman I would be on my knees praying that this woman, a survivor if there ever was one, has the greatest life from now on...she deserves all that and more. I was an adult when I read it and hope it would lay some of my own demons but it only increased them. This is not a book I would read again. I am not sorry I read it but it is one that will haunt me till the day I die.… (más)
