Free At Last
I would recommend this heartbreaking book to others to help them appreciate what they have. It is important to learn and sympathize with others who live such difficult lives. This book was very interesting and I could not put it down. The
story keeps
the readers attention because of its emotional nature.
Dave
has written
many stories
about his life and I have now read three of them. I look forward to reading another book of his collection. I find it amazing how he lived through the abuse although his mother tried to kill him. I respect Dave Pelzer because he has successfully lived through life despite his tragedy.

Trying to find peace
What I found heartbreaking about this book is the impact that
Dave's childhood
continues to play in his adulthood.
His confrontation with his mother is heart wrenching. Dave's relationship with his child, and the constant striving to ensure that the cycle of abuse is broken, and that he himself does not become an abuser.
Another powerful book, and an amazing life achievement.

Behind Closed Doors
I recommend this book because it tells the
story
of what really happened in the Pelzer household. It made me laugh, cry, and even worried about what will happen to David. The scary thing about life is that you never know who is being abused or being an abuser until you know them personally. Also, you should report child abuse right when you witness/ hear about it because if you wait then it might be too late.
Dave Pelzer
kept me reading until the end. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

A man called Dave
I couldn't get into this book as much as the other
dave pelzer
books in the series. This book is more about the insprational speeches that he gives and not as much about his horrifying childhood abuse that his mother put him through.
A Man Named Dave
Brilliant follow up on previous book. If you've not read the other books, then read them, it should change your outlook on life. This third book resolves the first two beautifully ans left in tears. An unprecedented display of personal
triumph
and legacy for
Dave
's son and readers who have suffered abuse of any kind.
