Children's books on trauma

I'm looking for a comprehensive list of books written on the elementary level which deal with childhood adversity. These could be books which are meant to be read with children who have ACEs, or could be made available, for example, in an elementary school wellness center, and could be read by these children themselves. There are many books about worries, fears, manners, anger management, kindness, and various character traits. What I am wanting to explore is books that deal more with actual childhood adversity. One example is "My Daddy Is In Jail", by Janet M. Bender, M. Ed. I recently went to my favorite bookstore  (which happens to be the largest used and new bookstore in the world) in search of such materials and found very little, in a TINY section of miscellaneous children's issues.  If you have such a list, please share!
