Thoughtful & helpful story for older foster children

Benni and Victoria is a story that pulls you in and makes you want to find out what is going to happen next. The main character, Benni, is a foster child who has gone through many hardships. His thoughts and emotions reflect what many other foster children may feel. The story is imaginative and sends the message that each child has something special to offer. -Cynthia Miller Lovell, author of The Star: A story to help young children understand foster care, and Questions & Activities for The Star: A handbook for foster parents

Book can assist children explore thoughts and feelings

BENNI & VICTORIA: Friends Through Time tells the story that so many abused and neglected children have lived. I was pleasantly surprised by the charm this book held, by my hesitancy to put it down, and by the sensitivity and accuracy with which Patricia Aust wrote of the children's feelings and experiences. I was reminded that children thrive on mystery, magic and intrigue and are much better able to swallow the truth when surrounded by a well-crafted tale. This book can assist children in exploring their thoughts and feelings and further to affirm that a friendship can help soften difficult times. Reviewed in THE NEW SOCIAL WORKER, Fall 1997, by Molly Faulkner, RN, LISW, Clinical Social Worker, Programs for Children and Adolescents at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM.

Benni and Victoria-- a wonderful kids' book!

I read this several times and each time found more facets of little Benni, who endures many hardships but emerges a survivor. I read it to my grandchildren and they both -- girl and boy-- enjoyed the story of little Benni and his ghost friend, Victoria. They were delighted with the end. --- Eileen Hehl

Fifth Grade class loves BENNI & VICTORIA

I'm a teacher who read BENNI & VICTORIA to my fifth grade class last spring. Their response was so strong that I intend to read it to this year's class, too. My class loved BENNI & VICTORIA. Every day the book was the highlight of their day, and they begged for me to read more. They liked the illustrations, too. Here are some of their comments: I think Mrs. Aust should write Benny and Victoria II! Jason L. This book was the best book I ever read in my life. My class loved the book. Robert C. BENNI & VICTORIA was a really sad book, but also it made you think life isn't always peaches and cream and doesn't always go your way. Kate A. I liked it when he got in a foster home. Now he has a sister. Danielle P. I loved (BENNI & VICTORIA) so much. I loved the characters. They were cool. Robert K. Benni is a very good boy and he helped Victoria very much.
