Alfalfa Girl: The Path from Childhood Molestation to Soul - 9781984544919

Alfalfa Girl is the inner soul of teacher and mentor Emily Sorenson. Alfalfa Girl inspires a painful but illuminating self-discovery journey out of the impact of debilitating and repeated child abuses for both Emily and her mentee, Jenny Nelson. The two elicit help from a support team, innovative trust-building methods including dog therapy, and law enforcement to combat stalking, rape, and other challenges. Purposely timed during the disarming context of the 2016 presidential election and its still evolving aftermath, the story juxtaposes personal recovery against a painful backdrop of reckless and disturbing national conversations that spotlight the ugly reality of misogynistic attitudes exposed daily into the national fabric of our country. Alfalfa Girl and Jenny navigate the deeply personal, complex, and potentially debilitating issues surrounding the devastating results of sexual assault, including PTSD. Through constantly evolving emotional landscapes, they thread their way with through meaningful healing and survival to highlight hope for themselves and inspiration for readers.
