If I were a bibliotherapist, the Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire is a series that I would definitely use with my clients who have suffered from trauma in childhood. These books have a way of making one feel understood — they acknowledge the bad things; they acknowledge the growth and strength that one develops as a survivor, without discounting the fact that no one should ever have to go through the traumatic experiences in the first place. In that sense, these books are cathartic like a good cry, or a warm hug. Lost In the Moment and Found, which tells us the story of Antoinette (Antsy) — the girl who can find lost things, but is herself lost, is similarly  therapeutic. It talks about child sexual abuse, and parentification, with a great deal of sensitivity. However, that does not mean that the book is gloomy. Set in a fantastic shop of wonders that travels across dimensions and worlds, the book is fun and I enjoyed it greatly. It was nice to come across callbacks to some of my favourite characters from previous books in the series  (I won't say who, because spoilers!), and I greatly enjoyed the reading by Jesse Vilinsky, who endows it with a sense of wonder and empathy.
