Great Book

My teacher is Dan Reed and he told us about his book that he wrote. I never had a chance to read it because it's a little hard to find. I hope to read the book soon. Mr. Reed's my favorite teacher!

A great True crime book

I really enjoyed reading this book it was very interesting and thought that the authors did an amazing job interviewing the key people. It did get a little slow at times but it was just because of all the details. It did have a little too much detail as to what was done to the children and the effects that occurred but it helps us understand and realize what the parents and medical staff had to see these helpless children go through. I do recommend this book to all who like to read true crime. Enjoy! :o)

A sensational tale, unsentationally told

I have to quibble with the previous reviewer. The book -- the result of years of research and absolutely factual (as it says in the Preface) -- was the BASIS for the well-received although fictionalized TV-Movie-of-the-Week. The book is, also, not your average True-Crime; this one is, like Capote's classic IN COLD BLOOD, a NOVEL as well. You won't be disappointed. (A final note: Dan Reed was not a "contributor," he was the CO-author, and, at the time, married to Ms. Moore.)
