Hush
"Inside the closed community of Borough Park, where most Chassidim live, the rules people live by are determined by an ancient script written thousands of years ago - and abuse has never been a part of it. But when thirteen-year old Gittel learns that her best friend has suffered abuse at the hands of a family member, the adults in her community try to persuade Gittel, and themselves, that nothing happened. Forced to remain silent, Gittel is plagued with guilt over the choices she made and those forced on her by the community"--Back cover. Suggested level: secondary.
