Reseña del libro "Elephant in the Living Room: The story of a skateboarder, a missing dog and a family secret (en Inglés)"

Eleven-year-old Danielle Godot has her own room in a nice house near the beach, two devoted parents, a kid brother who is only occasionally a pain in the you-know-what, a parakeet, a rabbit and a loyal best friend who is as into skateboarding and animals as she is. What could possibly be wrong with this picture? In Elephant in the Living Room, authors Alison Leslie Gold and Darin Elliott show that even colossal problems can be invisible as long as no one wants to see them for what they are. Gutsy, tom-boyish, big-hearted Danielle loves her father fiercely. But she is embittered by the loss of her beloved mutt, Beckett, who disappeared as a result of one of her dad's bouts of drinking-induced irresponsibility. What's wrong with him? Are they all going crazy? Aimed at children from the ages of about 10 to 14, and all who are confounded by problem drinking, Elephant in the Living Room tells the story of how a good man's slide into alcoholism damages the people who love him most, and how his family summons the courage to make themselves - and him - face up to it and get help. The narrative is leavened with Beckett's clear-sighted and irreverent commentary and the book concludes with a list of resources for those whose lives are affected by alcoholism.
