Rohan Bullkin and the Shadows: A Story about ACEs and Hope

Rohan Bullkin is haunted by sinister Shadows that fuel his fear of reading. He hates books so much that he often rips their pages. But when the Shadows become intolerable, Rohan accepts an offer of friendship from a special book. This marks the beginning of a remarkable journey during which he not only learns how to conquer Shadows but also develops a love of books and life.

Rohan Bullkin and the Shadows highlights connections between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), toxic stress and many children’s academic weaknesses and disruptive behaviours. It shows how supportive environments and the ability to read well significantly improve children’s odds of overcoming trauma and becoming successful. In addition to providing a medium for children and adults to explore their ACEs, this book aims to help others develop a deeper understanding of the symptoms of toxic stress and ways in which they can be allies to those who need support.
