MUST READ!!!!

As I sat reading this book that brought me to realize parts of reality I began to realize that as Dave was writing this book (as he wrote in his book) that he was showing us all a behind the scence. To me this book was extraordinary and towards the end he writes his perspective on foster care which really caused a tear. Once again, to me there are no words that can explain what this book means to me, let me tell you I will never forget this book as well as his life and the many obstacles he had to face in order to survive. If there's one thing I'd like to say, is thanks for all your hard work, dedication and encouragement because you have really made a difference!! Thanks again!! This book should be a must read for everyone.

Whatever happened after he rolled off in that cop car?

Answer: his life got worse. He ends up becoming incredibly insecure with himself. He doesn't know who he is in the world, all that he knows is that he is wrong, he has been "bad" and that he is the "It" child, unworthy of his mother's love. This is Dave Pelzer's incredible journey after his escape from what would have surely been his end. His journey through foster home after foster home, Juvenile Hall and mentors that would change his world with three simple words. However, his mother still plays her scheming games from afar, trying to get him back into her clutches so that she can finish the job that she began so many years ago: ruining him. A true tale of emotional survival after years of horrible abuse.

Mat Perrin, esq.

The Lost Boy

This book was just the continue of the book "a child called it" this book is about how his life was like growing up and how many foster homes he when to and how good/bad his life was from there. This book really teaches people that there are people kids out there that are less fortunate that don't get the same care as other people. He is pretty much on his own no one to watch over him but he conquers all his hard ships in the end.






Kid for Sale

This book is basically about a boy named David, from A Child Called It, that escapes from his house and his abusive mother. He ends up going to a foster home and has to move from home to home all the time. He goes through different struggles at each home, and is faced with many decisions. I enjoyed reading this book.
I liked the first book better, but I did like that David got out of his abusive house.
I didn't like that David's dad doesn't really care for David as much anymore. I also did like that David's brother talked to him while David was living at a foster home.
I would recommend this book to someone who read the first book, or to someone who enjoys reading books about people's problems and how they deal with them. Someone who enjoys the Drama kind of books will like this. This is also a suspenseful book if you like those kinds of books.

Book Review (Lost Boy)

Book Review

The book I have read was called The Lost Boy. It was about this boy who's parents have picked on and starved. He then had enough and ran away. He didn't get far with out his mom going out to find him and bring him back to his nightmares. Then he was taken to the police station where he was then asked questions about how he's had so many beatings and what his scars and bruises are from. He then tells them that his mother has been hurting him. It was hard for him to let out the truth because he loved his mother so much.
I think this book is very well written and emotional. There are a lot of parts where you can't take you eyes off the book. They get locked and even the descriptions of each part he is feeling it seems like you are watching right there. The images in your head sometimes made me feel scared. Other parts made me mad. I think that the author had written ever feeling and every thought run through in his head and knew how to say it with the reader's visual. Some parts made you stop and think about what you would do in that situation. When you couldn't think of anything, you had to look and see what the lost boy did. Some things were clever and others I questioned. One was how can he has gone through so much and not have the guts to tell any one. My answer was he was still very young and his mom was the only one that was supposed to love him. If I didn't have someone that loves me I know I'd be lost too. I had full sympathy for him; I couldn't understand what made her turn out that way. Parts of the book would make you teary and some would make you feel like if there's a problem take a stand. I think that Dave Pelzer the author has a lot of messages in his books. It's up to the reader to decide which ones to follow. I know after reading his books you see things differently. I enjoy reading the book and I recommend it to other readers.
