Beacon of Hope

This book offers positive, practical advice for parents coping with helping their child work through and survive an eating disorder. It is well written, well organized, and compassionately rendered by an expert in the field who is herself an anorexia survivor.During a time when parents are likely to be distracted by fear and anxiety and yet must search for ways to help their child, this book offers hope and help, not fear and blame. I cannot recommend it strongly enough.
