Cry Silent Tears: The Heartbreaking Survival Story of a Small Mute Boy Who Overcame Unbearable Suffering and Found His Voice Again | Paperback

This book was painful to read! A few times i had to stop reading and look at the wall for a few minutes, as i couldn't take in what this child went through! Very hard to put the book down as you need to know what happens next and how the boy becomes free. Upsetting, disturbing and shocking.

this was very hard to read at times especially as a mum to two boys,it's utterly heartbreaking what that poor little boy went through,i cried and cried and felt physically sick even when putting the book down the thoughts and images were very hard to get away from.Filled me with anger that these monsters get away with such disgusting cruel treatment to children,as said before it's not a 'good' book but very hard to put down even though it's such a difficult read.

It has been a while now since reading this, and i saw the cover today and thought i'd write this review.
I cannot say that this book was a pleasure to read, although i couldn't stop, i felt physically sick and nauseated by the sheer lack of humanity that is present on this planet.
Joe Peters is truly a hero and pure living proof of what one can achieve after losing ones voice, by writing this book he has made such an astounding achievement that makes me as the reader glad to have shared in the heartache (although not in ways we can imagine) it was not by any means a 'good' book but in the appreciation of what he has been through and to have been relieved knowing he did prevail and this is what made it a pleasure to read. An amazing guy, a heartbreaking book, once the first page is turned you'll cry till the very end, in pain and in joy.

This book is amazing the neglect and abuse this little boy suffered is unbearable.at times the book was difficult to read as the sexual abuse is explained in great detail.it actually made me cry at parts wondering how his parents and family could be so cruel.what an amazing read.

This book is not easy to put down, from the beginning till the end you think surely they cant do no more to him, but they do. Not for the faint hearted !
