Story
In July 1965, teenagers Sylvia and Jenny Likens were left in the temporary care of Gertrude Baniszewski, a middle-aged single mother, and her seven children. The Baniszewski household was overrun with children. There were few rules and ample freedom. Sadly, the environment created a dangerous hierarchy of social Darwinism where the strong preyed on the weak. What transpired in the following three months was both riveting and chilling.

amazing book/narrator! hard to stop reading / read the torture Sylvia went through. This book is well written and put together describing the horrendous acts being done . even explaining why "mom" may have done what she did. Although reading this book broke my heart and turned my gut it also told the tremedous strength of Sylvia and how she remained a pure sweet innocent girl while going through what can only be described as a living hell !
