Munchausen by proxy syndrome (MBPS) is a relatively uncommon condition that involves the exaggeration or fabrication of illnesses or symptoms by a primary caretaker. One of the most harmful forms of child abuse, MBPS was named after Baron von Munchausen, an 18th-century German dignitary known for telling outlandish stories.

More Than It Hurts You by Darin Strauss
My review
rating: 5 of 5 stars
A real page turner, one that you just hate to put down. I read this book in two days flat.
I had to request this one from the library after I saw it on your shelf. It looks very interesting! Thanks for sharing these reviews.
