From every chapter beginning with a Bible verse and an inspirational poem to ending with a prayer, to the over 40 original and compelling illustrations, Little Girl Crying is not just another memoir, but a sense-evoking experience. This is a story that is a wild ride on an emotional roller coaster, and yet, a spiritual journey full of hope and miracles that speaks to perseverance, the power of prayer, and God’s silence amid our suffering. While Little Girl Crying takes the reader deep into the heart of suffering, it also reflects on where God is in the midst of our suffering, why He allows it, and how we can find both a deeper purpose for it and the blessings in it. This memoir is so much more than a story about an eating disorder, but a spiritual journey that demands to be taken by all that suffer. It is no wonder Little Girl Crying has been called a modern day, Pilgrim’s Progress.

Little Girl Crying is truly heartbreaking and moving as Belinda painstakingly opens up her wounds and lets the reader feel the terrible pain of indifference and abuse and the ever-present evil distorted voice of anorexia . I felt myself under the bed with little Belinda and hugging her all throughout each shattering event in her life. I was inspired by her Faith, her ability to forgive, and her trust, hope, and personal relationship with Our Lord. May God Bless you, Belinda. I hope your book brings others suffering in darkness to God's Grace and Healing.

Little Girl Crying is a testament to the strength and courage of the human spirit, and to Belinda’s in particular. It is a stunning example of the power and extraordinary faithfulness and unconditional love of our Heavenly Father. I was moved to tears and compassion over and over as I witnessed Belinda’s fierce struggle, but more than that, I was moved to admiration and respect. This is the story of a battle between life and death, of an inner war between the Holy Spirit and the Voice of E.D. It is the story of how this enemy was vanquished through persistence, grace and contemplative prayer.I believe that what God wants from us more than anything else is our hearts. Belinda’s honest, heartfelt, beautiful prayers and poems inspired and amazed me. They touched my soul and led me into my own prayer.
I recommend this book to anyone who has ever struggled with any addiction and is in need of hope.
