What A Smile Can Hide: The beginning

By MS Janet Marie Burns and Ms. Janet Marie Burns

Janet's aka 5th Degree, mission for this book is to bring awareness to the realities of sexual and physical abuse amongst and towards children in the black community. Coupled with the generational curses that cause for this subject to be taboo and left unresolved; we are often left lost to what the reality is for those who are victims. Janet boldly exposes the ugly truth and what should be a beautiful thing when it is used to hide pain and hurt that the victim feels no one will understand. When you finish this book, you will learn two things. The first one is to appreciate the smiles of everyone around you, and the second, to know that as amazing the smile might be; it could be hiding something that is so hurtful and painful, it is the only beauty that person has left.
