Snippet:
When Amy Griffin was 12 years old, a teacher at her school – one of her favourites; the one who told her she was the school’s real leader – sexually assaulted her. The abuse, which she details viscerally in her bestselling memoir, The Tell, happened multiple times throughout her time at middle school, and again when she was 16.
